About this Wine

It is the spicy and vegetal notes that are first noticed that make this Pinot Blanc from Ingelheimer Lagen by Simone Adams stand out from its primary fruity and somewhat irrelevant “contemporaries” from the same grape variety. Pear compote, citrus zest and a hint of peach are there, but the focus here is on the scent of marigolds, green walnuts and the fine bouquet of fresh, young spring herbs such as tarragon, chervil and borage. The pleasant creaminess turns into mineral saltiness and a strong, crisp acidity in the mouth, before remaining dry, without any noticeable residual sweetness, with a hint of tannins and bitter, smoky spice. This is Pinot Blanc with a lot of structure and grip, which perfectly reflects the limestone Ingelheim terroir.

About German Wines

Germany is the world’s northernmost fine wine producing region and thus requires its vines to endure some of the coldest temperatures. Fortunately, the country’s star variety, Riesling, does well in cooler climates and can survive even these freezing winters.

Germany Riesling is classified by ripeness at harvest which is also used to indicate the wine’s level of residual sugar. Picking earlier means the grapes have less time to ripen and the corresponding wines will be on the drier side; while picking later gives the grapes the opportunity full ripen and produce a lusciously sweet Riesling. The classifications from driest to sweetest: Kabinett, Spätlese, Auslese, Beerenauslese, Trockenbeerenauslese and Eiswein (ice wine). While not as common to age white wines outside of Chardonnay, top tier German Rieslings can be aged for decades.

Other notable white grape varieties produced in Germany include Müller-Thurgau (a cross between Riesling and Madelaine Royale in the search for varieties that could withstand the extreme temperatures), Grauburguner (Pinot Gris) and Weissburguner (Pinot Blanc). The cooler German climate leads to earlier harvesting in general and gives German wines a distinctive character of higher acidity.

Historically red wine has always been harder to produce in the German climate. However, Pinot Noir grown in slightly warmer pockets of the country, has been highly successful in recent times. Going by the German name, Spätburgunder, German Pinot Noir can be elegant, structured and have vibrant acidity.
