GERMANY, Rhein and Mosel tour:
A fantastic wine tour is coming up in early September: we are travelling to the iconic Rhein and Mosel regions and will explore in depths the king of white grapes: Riesling.
Join me as we visit world-famous wineries, meet well-known wine personalities, and taste many of the wines you read about.
This year we start in Wiesbaden, a historic spa town famous for its hot springs. From there we do a side kick visit to the Rheinhessen wine region and will learn that Germany also produces extraordinary Pinot Noir (yes: Germany is the number 3 producer of Pinot Noir world-wide and of course number 1 producer of Riesling). We spend two days in the Rheingau, tasting our way through the different wine estates and terroirs, continue to the romantic Mittelrhein region where we do a cruise on the Rhein to indulge in the wine world’s most spectacular scenery with medieval villages and castles and ruins crowning the top of the hills like pearls on a string, and vineyards clinging to the rocky steep slopes.
We very much focus on the Mosel region. We travel the countless bends of the river from head to toe, from the confluence with the Rhein in Koblenz to the border with Luxembourg, visiting iconic wineries and up-and-coming producers already discovered by importers in the US.
Our final day we spend in the Nahe wine region with its many interpretations of the Riesling grape due to its mosaic of terroir.
