Vinous Joel Payne - 01 Jan 12
Full red-ruby. Rich aromas of blackberry, smoky bacon fat and fresh rose. Lush in texture, with sweet berry fruit nicely supported by ripe tannins. Gently spicy wine with fine depth and impressive length. An excellent pinot noir from the Rheingau.

Germany

Germany is renowned for its diverse, high-quality wines, primarily white varieties like Riesling. Thriving in cool climates and regions like Mosel, Rheingau, and Pfalz, German Rieslings range from dry to sweet, showcasing vibrant acidity and minerality. Top producers include Weingut Egon Müller and Joh. Jos. Prüm in Mosel, Weingut Robert Weil in Rheingau, and Dr. Loosen. Weingut Keller in Rheinhessen is noted for both Riesling and Spätburgunder (Pinot Noir). These producers highlight the excellence and tradition of German winemaking.
