Admission includes virtual storytelling and an art collection by the Kreuzer brothers.

How the experience works
This is a self-guided experience. Visitors make their own way between the two locations. The museum visit and wine tasting can take place on different days, during each venue’s opening hours.
Advance booking is required for the tasting. Homemade juice is explicitly offered as an alternative to the glass of wine at the museum. A non-alcoholic replacement for the two wine samples at the wine shop has not been confirmed.
