With a light to medium body, this vintage offers a delightful balance of off-dry sweetness, making it a wonderfully approachable choice for both newcomers and seasoned wine lovers. The acidity is vibrant and refreshing, enhancing the wine's overall liveliness and mouthwatering quality. Notes of ripe stone fruit and zesty citrus flavors dominate the palate, while subtle undertones of honey add depth to the experience.

Riesling is the most famous varietal in Germany, and is made in a range of styles, from dry and steely to sweet and peachy. The wines are classified according to the region as well as how much sugar is in each wine. Aside from the aromatic Riesling, you will also find subtle, refreshing whites made from local grapes like the floral Müller-Thurgau and Silvaner. Germany also produces some increasingly excellent red wine, mostly crisp and brightly fruity Pinot Noir (locally known as Spätburgunder).
