Wein- und Tafelhaus

In this small winemaking village, Daniela and Alexander Oos have turned a winegrower's house dating back to 1672 into a lovely fine dining restaurant where guests really feel at home. The chef cooks up classic cuisine using seasonal ingredients and drawing on Mediterranean and Asian influences; front of house, the cordial proprietress wins over diners with her easy Tyrolean charm. Punchy, elegant dishes made from top-notch ingredients (eg tender and aromatic slow-cooked Wagyu beef saddle with a robust jus full of depth and delicate sweetness) are accompanied by a great wine list with an emphasis on regional labels – there is even Grüner Veltliner from the restaurant's own vineyard, a nod to the hostess's Austrian roots. The glass-walled cube commands a wonderful view of the famous Trittenheimer Apotheke vineyard on the other side of the Moselle. In the pretty garden there is a marvellous terrace. Tasteful little boutique hotel next door.
