Dear Alumni,

It is with great pleasure that we cordially invite you to join our first LSE & Ivy Circle outdoor networking event in the beautiful Rheingau winery region just outside of Frankfurt. This will take place in Eltville and Walluf on Saturday, 24 June 2023.

We will start the day with a networking lunch at 13 h at the restaurant “Anleger 511” in Eltville (www.anleger511.de), where we have reserved the sun terrace overlooking the river Rhine.

Thereafter, we will take a walk along the riverbank “Eltville Riviera” at 14:45 h, leading us to our final destination, the “Weingarten” (“wine garden”) of renowned winery J.B.Becker in Walluf (alternatively, the Weingarten is a 5 min walk away from train station Niederwalluf, which itself is one train stop away from Eltville).

During our networking and wine tasting from 15:30 h at the Weingarten in Walluf (www.der-weingarten.com), we will have ample opportunity to enjoy some great wines and even better conversations. The Weingarten offers an extensive by-the-glass selection of their highly acclaimed wine portfolio as well as some snacks and nibbles.

Please note: Anyone who is interested in exploring the village of Eltville prior to our networking gatherings, can meet us from 11:45 h at Eltville train station for a walking tour starting at 12:00 h through the old town and Kurfürstliche Burg with its famous rose gardens.
