The Germany wine guide

A traveller's field guide to Germany's wine country

Riesling defines Germany's international reputation, thriving on the steep slate slopes of the Mosel and the south-facing hillsides of the Rheingau. Across 104,000 hectares, twelve distinct regions produce everything from razor-dry Franken Silvaner in bocksbeutel bottles to rich Spätburgunder from the volcanic soils of Baden. Rhineland-Palatinate alone accounts for roughly sixty percent of national output, anchoring six of the thirteen quality-wine appellations.

Wine tourism here means waking to river mist over the Rhine or cycling between half-timbered villages in the Pfalz, stopping at family estates where the same families have tended the same parcels for generations. The Ahr valley, Germany's northernmost red-wine region, pairs Spätburgunder with dramatic basalt gorges, while Sachsen's terraced vineyards along the Elbe offer a quieter, less-travelled alternative for travellers who want both history and a well-poured glass.

Mosel

Steep slate terraces rising to 400 metres along the Mosel River coax Riesling into wines of piercing minerality and bright acidity, shaped by cool nights and soils that have been cultivated since Roman times.

The Mosel region has been producing wine for over 2,000 years, dating back to Roman times.
