Wine Spectator – This expressive style features plenty of minerality, coating the mouth with luxuriant creaminess and concentrated white fruit and elderflower flavors. Very light and lacy on the pure and racy finish. Quite unctuous. Drink now through 2040

James Suckling – "An attractive Mosel Kabinett with expressive, stony slate character and effusive floral and lemon-zest aromas. Sleek body with beautifully integrated acidity and a long, very clean wet-stone finish. Drink or hold."

Robert Parker/Wine Advocate – "The 2021 Bernkasteler Badstube Riesling Kabinett is clear and fine yet still discreet in its aromas on the elegant and flinty/slatey nose. Sweet and round yet elegant and refined on the palate, this is a light but lush Badstube Kabinett with fine grip, charming texture and a crystalline and saline finish. 7.5% stated alcohol combined with 55.7 grams per liter of residual sugar."

James Suckling – "A remarkable pinot noir for a village wine with lots of autumnal complexity (underbrush, wet earth, bonfire) in the nose. Then comes the very structured medium-bodied palate with generous tannins and a fine-grained mouthfeel. The long focused finish with a cascade of mineral and wild herb notes completes the impressive picture. 30% whole cluster, wild fermented, then matured for a year in large oak. From biodynamically grown grapes. Unfiltered and unfined. Drink or hold."

Robert Parker/Wine Advocate – "The 2021 Hallgarten Riesling trocken Alte Reben is pure and refined on the remarkably precise and slatey as well as ripe and elegant fruity nose. Medium to full-bodied and with great finesse and mineral purity, this is a tight and salty, very persistent and lemon-bitter Hallgarten with a straightforward character. The aftertaste is fresh, crisp and enormously saline. A fascinating pure Riesling indeed." - Stephan Reinhardt, Wine Advocate (August 2022)

James Suckling – “Wonderfully floral and animating, but also peachy and succulent. This could almost be from the world-famous Wehlener Sonnenuhr site on the Mosel thanks to the scintillating interplay of fruit and acidity, with zero perceptible alcohol. Long, wet stone finish with tons of energy.” - Stuart Pigott, JamesSuckling.com

James Suckling – "Complex nose of orange and lemon peel, plus fresh wild herbs and a touch of flint. Quite some weight for 12.5% alcohol with compact fine tannins and stacks of chalky minerality that accentuates the freshness at the long, very clean finish. Wild fermentation, then maturation in large oak casks and stainless steel. From biodynamically grown grapes. Unfiltered. Drinkable now, but best from 2024."

James Suckling – "This Rheinhessen pinot noir has a striking nose of candied orange and baking spices with hints of herbal liqueur and savory. At one ripe and quite fleshy, but well-structured with a core of fine tannins that drive and focus the long chalky, yet fresh and elegant finish. From biodynamically grown grapes. 100% whole cluster, wild fermented, then 18 months in small oak. Unfiltered and unfined. Drink or hold."

Robert Parker/Wine Advocate – The 2021 Oestrich Riesling trocken Quarzit displays an intense golden-yellow color followed by an intense and concentrated bouquet with fine phenolic notes. Pure and enormously vital on the palate, this a long and tensioned, tight and textured Riesling from Oestrich. Fascinating again. Tasted at the domaine in August 2022.

Germany's wine landscape is as diverse as its history, with each region painting a unique picture of the country's viticultural artistry. The gentle undulating vineyards, nurtured by the Rhine and its tributaries, give rise to wines that resonate with depth and complexity. The influence of Germany's continental climate, coupled with its varied soil types, makes each bottle a reflection of its origin. The nation's flagship grape, Riesling, is celebrated for its aromatic intensity and versatility, ranging from bone-dry to lusciously sweet. Yet, the tapestry of German wines extends beyond just Riesling. Varieties like Spätburgunder (Pinot Noir) and Silvaner offer a glimpse into the multifaceted nature of German winemaking. As you explore these wines, you'll uncover stories of centuries-old vineyards, passionate winemakers, and a dedication to excellence that has cemented Germany's position in the global wine arena.
Wines from Germany are special due to their unique combination of rich history, diverse terroirs, and exceptional winemaking traditions. One of the distinguishing features of German wines is the influence of the country's cool climate on the grape-growing process. This climate contributes to the production of wines with vibrant acidity, expressive aromatics, and a remarkable ability to reflect the specific vineyard sites. Germany is also renowned for its iconic Riesling wines, which showcase a wide spectrum of flavors ranging from delicate floral notes to zesty citrus and ripe stone fruits. The meticulous attention to detail in the vineyard and cellar, coupled with a commitment to sustainable and organic practices, further enhances the quality and character of German wines.
German wines encompass a variety of styles and varietals, but Riesling and Spätburgunder (Pinot Noir) are among the most popular and recognizable. Riesling, celebrated for its ability to express terroir and age gracefully, remains a hallmark of German winemaking. Spätburgunder, on the other hand, has gained international recognition for its elegance and depth, particularly from regions like Baden and the Ahr. Both of these varieties have contributed to shaping Germany's reputation as a producer of top-quality, versatile wines that cater to a wide range of palates.
If you're exploring German wines for the first time, starting with a classic Riesling is highly recommended. Look for a Riesling from the Mosel or Rheingau regions, as these areas are celebrated for producing some of the finest expressions of the grape. Opt for a Kabinett or Spätlese level of sweetness to experience the balance between acidity and fruitiness that defines German Rieslings. Additionally, consider trying a Spätburgunder (Pinot Noir) from regions like Baden or the Ahr to experience the elegance and depth of German red wines. These wines offer a great introduction to the diversity and quality that German winemaking has to offer.
Germany is home to a plethora of exceptional wines that have earned global recognition. Some of the best-known and highly regarded offerings include Joh. Jos. Prüm Rieslings from the Mosel, Weingut Fritz Haag Rieslings from the Mosel, and Dr. Heger Spätburgunders from Baden. These wines exemplify the balance, complexity, and precision that have made German wines highly sought after by enthusiasts and collectors alike. Exploring the best German wines offers a journey through a diverse range of styles and terroirs, showcasing the country's profound impact on the world of fine winemaking.
