Rüdesheim Estate

1997 Rheingau Riesling

The 1997 Georg Breuer Rüdesheim Estate Riesling is a splendid example of the exceptional wines produced in Germany's renowned Rheingau region. This captivating white wine showcases a charming lightness, beautifully balanced by a vibrant acidity that dances on the palate, providing an invigorating freshness that is both mouthwatering and refreshing. The fruit intensity is remarkably prominent, revealing layers of ripe stone fruit and zesty citrus notes, which delightfully harmonize with subtle hints of floral undertones. This Riesling is off-dry, offering just the right amount of sweetness to complement its lively character, while the delicate nature of the tannins adds an interesting texture. With its rich heritage and exquisite craftsmanship, this wine is truly a testament to the artistry of German winemaking.

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).
