James Suckling – "Intensely savory nose with stacks of licorice, wild herb character and a hint of something quite vegetal, possibly from stems. Amazing concentration and very compact structure with a great interplay of restrained ripeness and stony minerality that powers the bold, long, powdery and chalky finish. From biodynamically grown grapes. 100% whole cluster, wild fermented, then 18 months in small oak. Unfiltered and unfined. Drink or hold." -Stuart Piggot

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."

James Suckling – "Breathtaking nose of ripe wild berries and herbs, savory and a touch of sous bois. Great concentration and amazingly mouth-filling for just 12.5%, this is a German pinot noir masterpiece and one of the wines of the vintage! Staggering length, the finish still tightly wound. You need some patience to get the best this has to offer. From biodynamically grown grapes. 100% whole cluster, wild-fermented, then 18 months in small oak. Unfiltered and unfined. Drinkable now, but best from 2025."

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."

James Suckling – "Very complex nose of red fruits, candied orange, baking spice, wild herbs and smoke. Equally complex and refined on the tense and beautifully structured palate, perfectly filled out by the fine tannins. Long, filigree and stony finish. From a site with very shallow soil directly over a limestone cliff. From biodynamically grown grapes. 100% whole cluster, wild fermented, then 18 months in small oak. Unfiltered and unfined. Drinkable now, but best from 2024." -Stuart Piggot

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.
