2007 Graacher Domprobst Ries.png

Delicious Riesling in all styles!

A selection of German Riesling for all tastes - from sweet, sticky Eiswein, to the beautifully crisp Grosses Gewachs.
 


Prädikatswein is a German wine classification that represents the highest quality of wine, with rich flavours, sweetness and aromas due to the ripeness of the grapes at harvest.

The grapes are classified into 6 groups of ascending sweetness: Kabinett, Spätlese, Auslese, Beerenauslese, Eiswein, Trockenbeerenauslese

Even though these wines are generally very sweet, they must be produced naturally and are no sugar can be added to the grapes during fermentation.

Depending on the group, the grapes can be harvested when they are either plump and juicy, when they have dried and shrivelled on the vine, or even picked at night when they are frozen on the vines.

Delaying the harvest allows the grapes to increase the intensity of their sugar and flavours, which produces exceptional rich wines.
 


Grosses Gewächs are dry wines that come from a Grosses Lages vineyard (the equivalent of Grand Cru) which are the best sites according to the Verband Deutscher Prädikatsweingüter (VDP).

The VDP is an invitation-only industry body with approximately 200 producers in this prestigious group (there are circa 30,000 winegrowers in Germany.)

Grosses Gewächs is a mark of quality: signature wines of the top producers from their selection of finest dry Rieslings. 

They are balanced, precise, pure and immediately charming.

Spätlese

 

Spätlese wines are typically half-dry, and often sweeter and fruitier than Kabinett. The grapes are picked at least 7 days after normal harvest, so they are riper. While waiting to pick the grapes carries a risk of the crop being ruined by rain, in warm years and from good sites much of the harvest can reach this level. While Spätlese means late harvest, the wine is not as sweet as a dessert wine

Eiswein

 

Eiswein is made from grapes that have been naturally frozen on the vine, thus making a very concentrated wine. It has to reach at least the same level of sugar content in the must as a Beerenauslese. The most classic Eiswein style is to use only grapes that are not affected by noble rot.

Grosses Gewachs

 

All Grosses Gewächs wines come from Grosses Lage, Germany's equivalent of Grand Cru vineyards, and the best vineyards according to the Verband Deutscher Prädikatsweingüter (VDP). The VDP is an invitation-only industry body with around 200 producers in this prestigious group.

Unlike Burgundy, where Grand Cru vineyards, mean Grand Cru wines, a Grosses Lage can only be labelled a GG if it follows a number of criteria:

  • The grapes are fully ripe
  • Residual sugar does not exceed 9g/l
  • No more than 50 hectolitres per hectare
  • Hand harvested grapes
  • The wine is tasted by local members of the VDP
