Every year in late summer, the traditional Rheingau Wine Market takes place in the heart of the city of Frankfurt am Main on Frankfurt's promenade "Freßgass", featuring exclusively Rheingau wineries. The Rheingau Wine Market is one of the premier culinary events in the main metropolis, with more than 400,000 visitors. The winegrowers' offerings are complemented by culinary delicacies, especially from the direct gastronomic Freßgass neighbors.
The first Rheingau wine market was held in the Freßgass' in 1978. At the time, it was deliberately established in Frankfurt's elegant promenade, as the colloquial name "Freßgass'" alone stands for the tradition of this street as a place of epicurean pleasure.
The concept of this market is to bring together and bring winegrowers into direct contact with market visitors. The restriction to the Rheingau wine-growing region resulted from the Rheingau's function as a local recreation area just outside Frankfurt, but also from the fact that the Lohrberg in Frankfurt is the outermost tip of the Rheingau.
