What’s the most exciting country for wine in the world right now? Germany

The Liebfraumilch years are long gone. From seriously good riesling to juicy pinot noir, Germany now has plenty to offer

I am not quite sure when it happened. There was no moment of Damascene conversion, no single palate-altering bottle or preconception-shredding cellar tour but some time over the past couple of years, the weight of evidence (measured in the strictly scientific unit of empty bottles per week) began to point to an unexpected conclusion: the single most improved, exciting, and all-round high-performing wine country in the world right now might be Germany.

Dear wine friends,

I just found this article in the Guardian. It is worth a read.

 

This follows the blunt quote of Jancis Robinson who wrote in the Financial times just three weeks ago: "German wine has completely transformed itself in recent years, but fine-wine buyers seem stubbornly unaware of the fact."

I kindly invite you to join my wine tour to Germany for you to see and taste for yourself what German wine is all about and to experience this wonderful wines so underestimated in the world.  Nowhere else do you get top notch wines for such a ridiculously low price point.  I am very sure that this will change soon enough, since the world is about to discover this hidden gems. 

 

I will take you to very interesting wine regions, to world-class winemakers with whom you can discuss everything you ever wanted to know about German wine and to beautiful places passed by the casual traveler. 

 

We travel to the heart of German culture where world-famous musicians, poets, philosophers lived and worked who all very much appreciated the wonderful wines they were surrounded with. To know more, look here: http://ombiasypr.com/index.php/wine-tours/germany-east/germany-east-itinerary

Don’t hesitate to ask me any questions you may have about German wines, about the upcoming wine tour, about travelling in Germany, about meeting winemakers, etc. I can be reached via phone or via email: aschiller@ombiasypr.com

 

Cheers

 

Annette
