20.11.2025 - Long Night of Philosophy with Dr. Albert Kitzler
Philosophy and sensory experience: We explore the three phases of human life – youth, middle age, and mature wisdom – and reflect on their respective strengths, weaknesses, and characteristics. Alongside this, we taste three champagnes representing these stages:
– a young champagne with short bottle aging (2 years)
– a middle-aged champagne (5 years)
– and a mature champagne with long bottle aging (10 years).
How do character, depth, and expression change over time – in people as well as in wine? Can we taste the maturation of life in the glass? An evening for mind and palate – full of conversation, enjoyment, and lasting impressions!

Oliver Nözel: "Flamenco is a shared experience that transcends cultural and linguistic barriers and speaks to us where we are all the same: in our emotions."
To match, we serve champagne full of passion and emotion.
