| That would be a disaster in my opinion. My wife prefers the sweeter wines of the Rhinehessen region - the brown bottles. I recently purchased some Nackenheimer Riesling (believe it or not here in Florida where it is difficult to get good German wine). It was not a spatlese but it was very good. Not as sweet as most Rheinhessen but medium with very fruitty taste. Don't believe the German vinyards would leave the Riesling to the Alsace region of France.

I am glad to hear the good news. Since Egon Müller-Scharzhof is the authority and is able to influence the future trend for German wines, I wonder what he has to say about this. Based on the recent VDP rule, am I correct to say that only Auslese and above are sweet and the rest that fall under Great Growths will be dry? In other words, there will not be a Lieblich Kabinett or Spatlese. Ray This message was created using the Web-based forum : www.wein-plus.com/forum/ |
