Discover the diversity of German wine in the second session of the series. Julia Lambeth DipWSET will take you through the regions of Rheingau, Rheinhessen and Pfalz, showcasing a range of styles from fizz to barrel-fermented whites and even ice wine!
Event details
The Rheingau has been producing top Riesling for centuries and is the perfect place to explore the sheer versatility of this variety, from traditional-method sparkling wine to ice wine.
At this tasting, we'll also be exploring the wines of Rheinhessen and Pfalz, exploring how different growing conditions and grape varieties have produced a wide variety of styles including ripe Grauburgunder and flinty Chardonnay. Taste your way through some classic fine German wines and lesser-known styles, including a surprise wine that you'll taste blind!
