THE WINES OF GERMANY
Germany’s vineyards are unique because grapes do not normally grow in such northern latitudes. The Rhine River and its tributaries flow through such deep-cut valleys that the fruit is protected from harsh northern winds.
In “vino veritas” - “in wine there is truth” - is the legacy that the old Romans left after they first colonized the Rhine and brought with them their expertise in wine making.

Throughout the centuries, German wine growers improved upon the quality of their product and succeeded in creating wines that rival anything grown in the warm, benign climates of the Mediterranean. Although one might expect otherwise, German wines are graded according to their degree of sweetness. Auslese is late harvest.

Beerenauslese is a grape harvested after the first frost and Trockenbeerenauslese are harvested by hand after the grapes have practically become raisins on the vine. By this time, the grape is covered with a fungus native to Germany called “Edelfäe” - Noble Rot! Like everything else, all this handpicking has its price.

Customs and tastes do change. Today the wine regions of “Baden” and “Württemberg” excel in the production of dry white wines, the perfect companions to today’s lighter meals.
