What’s the most exciting country for wine in the world right now? Germany
The Liebfraumilch years are long gone. From seriously good riesling to juicy pinot noir, Germany now has plenty to offer
I am not quite sure when it happened. There was no moment of Damascene conversion, no single palate-altering bottle or preconception-shredding cellar tour but some time over the past couple of years, the weight of evidence (measured in the strictly scientific unit of empty bottles per week) began to point to an unexpected conclusion: the single most improved, exciting, and all-round high-performing wine country in the world right now might be Germany.

I kindly invite you to join my wine tour to Germany for you to see and taste for yourself what German wine is all about and to experience this wonderful wines so underestimated in the world. Nowhere else do you get top notch wines for such a ridiculously low price point. I am very sure that this will change soon enough, since the world is about to discover this hidden gems.
