Natural wines in Cologne: Check out these addresses!

Cologne goes natural wine: the lively wines are conquering North Rhine-Westphalia and fit the city like the carnival itself. In addition to the famous "Kölsch" beer, people on the Rhine are now also sipping on natural wine, which we are celebrating, as the number of wine stores, bars and restaurants selling natural wines is increasing in Cologne. Natural wine comes without any frills and in the familiar varieties as white, red or orange wine in a glass and is shaking up the hip Cologne wine scene with its authentic style. You can try different natural wines at these places in Cologne!
