About this Event

Riesling is one of the world’s great white grape varieties, and arguably the one with the greatest ability to translate place into wine.

Join us for a comparative tasting across Germany, Alsace, and Austria to explore how climate, soils, vineyard sites, and winemaking shape the endlessly varied personality of Riesling. We’ll taste multiple wines from each region, ranging from bone-dry and mineral-driven to richly textured and layered, discovering the distinctive signatures of both the region and the vineyard.

Three regions. One grape. A remarkable range of expression.


Wines being featured include:

Pichler-Krutzler Ried Pfaffenberg 2022

Tegernseerhof Ried Loibenberg Smaragd 2022

Bründlmayer Ried Heiligenstein 2023

Zind-Humbrecht Roche Granitique 2023

Zind-Humbrecht Roche Volcanique 2023

Schäfer-Fröhlich Vulkangestein 2024

Rebholz Riesling vom Rotliegenden 2023

Kruger Rumpf Dautenpflänzer GG 2024
