WHAT

Riesling... mostly from the Mosel/Saar/Ruwer area but also from the Pfalz & Franken. Our emphasis will be on the best producers from each area but we will also be looking for the rising stars and anyone producing excellent wine regardless of cost, low or high.

WHY

We both like white wine & for our money the Riesling grape produces the highest quality wine with the widest variation of taste sensations. From bone dry to dripping honey sweet the Riesling grape produces wines of elegance & high complexity.
