Britzingen is a village with a population of about 1000, but well known to German wine drinkers. Already my father ordered "Britzinger Gutedel" here once a year. The cooperative is still active, so I bought two boxes. Sankt Johannes stands on the ruins of a Roman "villa rustica", as excavations proved in 1985. During that excavation the foundation of a wooden church was found, that was erected around 700. The oldest part of today's church is the tower from around 1250. A nave of the now protestant church got built 100 years later, which was enlarged around 1450. www.britzinger-wein.de/ Britzingen, "Sankt Johannes", Winzergenossenschaft, Gutedel, "villa rustica", "Baden-Württemberg", Deutschland, Germany
