Riesling Wine

Riesling is a white grape variety that is believed to have originated in the Rhine region of Germany. Its exact origins are still debated, but it is widely agreed upon that Riesling has been cultivated in this region for centuries.

Riesling is known for its versatility, as it can be made in a range of styles, from bone dry to lusciously sweet. It is often praised for its high acidity, which gives it a refreshing and vibrant character. The taste profile of Riesling can vary depending on the region and style, but common flavours include citrus, apple, peach, and floral notes.

Exceptional Riesling wines come from Germany with the Mosel and Rheingau regions being particularly renowned for their high-quality wines. Alsace in France is another notable region for Riesling production, where it is often made in a dry style. In addition, Australia's Clare Valley and Eden Valley, as well as the Finger Lakes region in New York, USA, are recognized as some of the best regions for Riesling outside of Europe.
