We celebrated our wedding here in the Tenne and the location is just really beautiful. You can use the outside area of ​​the castle and the threshing floor itself is also super inviting and rustic. The Count takes care of the rental and is totally approachable and relaxed and really went out of his way to help us with many little things.

This was the last winery we visited on last year's European road trip. We dropped in at 13:59 on the 8th of August, one minute before opening. When we parked and my wife realized that we were making yet another wine related stop she sighed deeply but it turned out that everyone loved it in some way (if it wasn't for the wine, it was for the beautiful surroundings, calm atmosphere and truly great hospitality). The staff person was thrilled to hear that I had visited them 15 years earlier. My oldest daughter and I were given a quick and efficient tasting and we could purchase the wines we were interested in, including some of the last bottles of the 2016 HADES Muskattrollinger. I regret that I didn't ask for any Urban which I now see in their on-line Weinshop but maybe it wasn't bottled and ready for sale in August last year. I hope to return again and that it doesn't take another 15 years. Hopefully I will be able to get hold of some Urban next time :-)

Small castle and beautiful family-run winery. Very friendly owners and great atmosphere for celebrations. We went on a little bike ride and ended up there.

A castle with a wine shop that is well worth seeing. That's probably why I was allowed to walk freely on the beautifully maintained grounds and admire the small castle from three sides. I was also allowed into the castle courtyard, where the wine shop entrance was. Anyone interested in fine wines should also pay a visit to the castle.

Rosenborg Castle

Rosenborg Palace was built in the period 1606-34 as Christian IV’s summerhouse just outside the ramparts of Copenhagen. Christian IV was very fond of the palace and often stayed at the castle when he resided in Copenhagen, and it was here that he died in 1648. After his death, the palace passed to his son King Frederik III, who together with his queen, Sophie Amalie, carried out several types of modernisation.

The last king who used the place as a residence was Frederik IV, and around 1720, Rosenborg was abandoned in favor of Frederiksborg Palace.Through the 1700s, considerable art treasures were collected at Rosenborg Castle, among other things items from the estates of deceased royalty and from Christiansborg after the fire there in 1794.

Soon the idea of a museum arose, and that was realised in 1833, which is The Royal Danish Collection’s official year of establishment.
