Rheingau

Germany's most famous wine region, the small but mighty Rheingau has built its stellar reputation on its delightfully dry Riesling. Thanks to the south-facing aspect of the Rhine Valley's slopes here—plus the shelter provided by the Taunus hills—the Rheingau's vineyards enjoy a unique mesoclimate that helps grapes ripen perfectly. As a result, these medium- to full-bodied white wines often display satisfying flavors of ripe peach. Fans of red wine should also look out for its Pinot Noir (known locally as Spätburgunder), which usually comes from vineyards near the village of Assmannhausen.
