Germany
Germany has been benefiting from global warming and the last few vintages have been remarkably successful - but eiswein is in trouble. Riesling is the most important grape in Germany and is capable of producing dry, sweet and sparkling versions - all of which we are going to show you tonight. The Pinot family (blanc, gris and noir) also does well throughout Germany and we are really keen on tonight's Pinot Blanc (aka weissburgunder), from a biodynamic producer. Spatburgunder (aka Pinot Noir) is hugely popular in the local market and not much of it gets exported. Toni Jost in the Rheingau delivers flavor and value.
