Dear wine and food lover,
Join us as we discover the diverse, elegant, unqiue, and aromatic wines of Germany: dry, sweet, white, red. Germany with its 250,000 acres under vine is the smallest among the most important wine producing counties -Spain, Italy, France- in central Europe.
However, viticulture in Germany has a long tradition. Germany is not just a white wine country but with 38% red wine production also a serious red wine country. Germany is #1 producer of Riesling and Pinot Blanc (Weissburgunder), #2 producer of Pinot Gris (Grauburgunder), #3 producer of Pinot Noir (Spätburgunder) world-wide.
Germany also has a long-standing passion for sparkling wine and produces world-class sparklers in the méthode traditionelle. Each of the 3 tours has a different focus and explores different wine regions covering all 13 wine producing regions in Germany.
I wish all of you a wonderful Holiday Season with family and friends and of course some great bottles of wine to share and a HAPPY NEW YEAR 2018.
Annette Schiller
Ombiasy Wine Tours 2018: Germany
Germany NORTH: May 02 – May 08, 2018
Quintessential Riesling and the Northernmost Pinot Noir: This year I decided to start the first tour to Germany right after the "Weinbörse" to give guests the option to attend this fantastic tasting. The Weinbörse - closed to the general public - is the annual showcase of wine organized by the VDP (Association of Premium German Wine Estates) for all its 205 member estates. This is an unparalleled opportunity to taste Germany's premium wines from all regions. Should some participants of the Germany North tour be interested in arriving a couple of days earlier to attend the Weinbörse (April 29-30) I will get admission tickets.
