With a radiant golden hue, this white wine captures the essence of its terroir beautifully. It boasts a medium body that provides a satisfying mouthfeel while maintaining a refreshing character. The acidity is bright and lively, imparting a sense of crispness that invigorates the palate. Fruit intensity is prominent, showcasing vibrant notes of juicy pear and zesty citrus, complemented by hints of floral undertones.

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).
