It is a phenomenon that the noblest white wine variety, Riesling, flourishes exactly along the geographical line which marks the most northerly point where viticulture is possible. The special climate, described as a continental cool climate in viticulture, occurs only at the 50° latitude and provides ideal conditions for the Riesling grape, a late-ripening grape variety. Since the Rhine River makes a slight detour for approximately 30 km, the Rheingau region enjoys an ideal microclimate. The river, which warms up during the day, and the shallow layer of Taunus quartzite emit heat and cause optimal air circulation: the best conditions for Riesling to thrive and prosper.

| The style of wine, which is marked by its low residual sweetness, is called trocken - that means dry. It has a fresh taste with delicious fruity notes of citrus fruits and apples: superb with fresh fish and seafood, according to the herbs and spices used. Of course, it is also suitable with a Rheingau Riesling frothed soup (recipe available upon request). With a somewhat older vintage, it also goes well with Asian cuisine. |
