Subject: Re: GERMAN CLASSIFICATION - PUZZLE!! |
| Jochen, Indeed this is somewhat confusing. However, Grosses gewächs wine is required by regulation to be at least Spätlese in quality. Here is a citation: 4. Oenologische Werte Das Lesegut für Grosse Gewächse muss zumindest Spätlesequalität haben. (from the German VDP website) So there should NEVER be any chapitalization in a GG wine. I'm interested in finding specific regulations for the Mosel (in German or English), which is apparently neglected on the Verband site. Do you have a citation to them?

Eastern Standard Time, jochen.mueller@clever-mail.net writes: A "Großes Gewächs" is NOT a QmP; the expression is not covered by German wine law (but is something as a brand of a growers' business association, the VdP); as far as I know these wines can indeed be chaptalized More infos: www.wein-plus.com Unsubscribe: www.wein-plus.com/abmelden.htm |
