Are the two places in Germany you mentioned easy to get too?
Rüdesheim is probably the easiest of the two, on the Rhein just west of Mainz.

Bernkastel-Kues is a bit of the beaten path for many, on the Mosel maybe 25 minutes from Trier, 90 minutes from Rüdesheim. Trier has a much larger market but it is a mob scene.

Another one I liked was Köln. It was large and right at the cathedral, but when we went it didn't feel crowded.
