A Leafy Sunday!

With all the flowers we forget about the leaves it seems.


This vibrant red leaf is the Raison D' Étre of our area.

Eisenberg, Deutsch Schützen and the mouthwatering wines we produce. A taste sensation, that the rest of the world is slowly waking up to.


If you are a member of the slow-food-movement, it might be a good idea to move here. A handful of world acclaimed vintners are within walking distance. No carbon emissions!

An artist couldn't have placed these few leaves better on their perch. The rest of their compatriots have given up and bowed to the wind, but these few leaves are making sure the vine is eye catching.
The red of the leaves, the hearty brown of the turned soil mingled with a spot of green field in the background make it lovely to behold.
The forest and it's leaves need no introduction. They are simply nice. Can you remember how we used to collect leaves and press them in a book when we were children?
Dry it out, in a way. A few leaves ended up glued to a page or were used as outlines to draw our pre-school pictures... Memories indeed.
This happy yellow hued shrub is standing guard at the edge of Eisenberg. A nice welcome.
These leaves are more aptly named blades, I suppose, but seeing the drops of rain on the individual blades is another display of nature and its brilliance.
This last picture reminds me of a song sheet. The leaves seem to be holding a place. Maybe D-minor, D-major but definitely D-vine...
