Wein im Zweiten Weltkrieg. In Vino Vanitas

Überall tobte vor 75 Jahren noch der Krieg. Das hielt die Mitglieder einer Weinbewertungskommission in Halle nicht davon ab, in aller Ruhe die Jahrgänge 1943 und 1944 zu verkosten, in „Grün's Weinstuben“.

Meandering the Mosel | German wines at auction

Meandering the Mosel | German wines at auction

At the turn of the 20th century, German wines were in their heyday, their wines selling for prices similar to first growth Bordeaux. In the second half of the 20th century, however, the German wine world went through a brief period of darkness. Expansion of certain wine regions into land less suited to winegrowing coupled with recourse to new technology rather than age-old practices resulted in lots of cheap syrupy wines, in a time when the world wanted quantity rather than quality.

In Krisenzeiten investieren Anleger und Sammler gerne in teure Weine. Doch nirgends wird dreister gefälscht - wer will beurteilen, wie ein "Mouton Rothschild 1945" schmeckt?

Examining Germany’s place on the secondary market

Examining Germany’s place on the secondary market

Historically, Germany has been a small player on the secondary market for fine wine. Although Liv-ex has seen trade of German Riesling since 2003, the country’s share by volume and value as percentage of the overall trade has remained insignificant – at about 0.1%. That is, until recently.

The 2019 Germany Vintage Report
24 June 2020 17:02
The 2019 Germany Vintage Report

2019 is an exceptional vintage in Germany. It’s a vintage that has both excellent ripeness and bright, crisp acidity. It was not the easiest vintage on our grower’s nerves; the weather patterns were more extreme than previous years and varied from region to region and even village to village. The harvest required quick decision making and long days but the hard work resulted in a beautiful array of wines. Across Germany, it’s a vintage that shows great range and depth. The wines from 2019 are a pleasure to drink now and will develop gracefully for decades.

GERMANY’S NAHE: A GEOLOGIST’S PARADISE

HISTORY & EXPOSITION
Germany's Nahe: Geologist’s Paradise The Nahe is one of the smallest and the most geologically diverse regions in Germany. First legally recognized in 1971, this area is named for the Nahe River and is home to some of the finest vineyards and wineries in Germany. The Nahe River flows through the Hunsrück hills which separate the Nahe and the Mosel to the west, emptying into the Rhein across the river from the village of Rudesheim. To the east, just across the Nahe River, is Rheinhessen, the largest growing region in Germany, more than six times the size of the Nahe. Directly south of the Nahe is the Pfalz, the second warmest growing region in Germany.

Schloss Johannisberg and the story of Riesling

Three hundred years ago this year, a far-sighted noble decided to plant a vineyard with just one grape – Riesling. It was a decision that changed wine history. Ilka Lindemann has the story.

Ergebnisse der Riesling Auktion 2020

There's nothing quite like the pleasure of sipping a fine Scotch whisky, for those whose tastes run to such indulgences. But how can you be sure that you're paying for the real deal and not some cheap counterfeit? Good news: physicists at the University of St. Andrews in Scotland have figured out how to test the authenticity of bottles of fine Scotch whisky using laser light, without ever having to open the bottles. They described their work in a recent paper published in the journal Analytical Methods.

Gut Hermannsberg Shows A New Face For German Rieslings

Gut Hermannsberg Shows A New Face For German Rieslings

The respect for great German Rieslings has long been higher than sales of this classic varietal. Once, such wines were distinguished by their degree of sweetness, but the worldwide preference for dry wines blunted the appeal of German Rieslings, whose producers re-formulated many of their wines to be “trocken,” dry in an attempt to win back wine drinkers. Germany still makes superb sweet wines, but the future of Rieslings is in the hands of German’s young winemakers at small estates like Gut Hermannsberg in the Name region. The winery dates back to 1902 as a Royal Prussian Domaine, but today winemaker Kasten Peter makes dry Rieslings, noting, “Dogmatism isn't our thing.” I interviewed the winery’s CEO Achin Kirchner about the current state of Rieslings.

Germany's changing vineyards

In a recent post, I discussed Australia's changing vineyards, as an example of a New World wine-producing area that has changed considerably since 1960, in terms of both vineyard area and grape varietal composition. [Note: one late part of that post has since been modified, due to an error in calculations.] In this second part of the series, I look at Germany, as an example of an old-established vineyard area.

2019 is een geweldig jaar. De GG-s worden massaal tegen schappelijke prijzen in de markt gezet.
De wijnboeren en boerinnen hebben het moeilijk.
De consumenten drinken nu in coronatijd ca 8% meer wijn maar dat maakt het verlies van het wegvallen van de horeca niet goed.

THE NEW MAGNETISM OF ALT MOSEL

They’re untethered. Free to make wine any way, anywhere they want.

They chose the Mosel. A region defined by staggering slopes and daunting hand work, a reputation for conventional farming, a signature grape famous for being a tough sell, and a surfeit of villages and vineyards whose lifeblood had seemed to be ebbing away.

MÜLLER-THURGAU: A SHOULDER FOR GERMANY TO CRY ON

“Nothing very good has ever been made of Müller-Thurgau,” said the German wine webinar moderator, armed with the same parade of stale clichés and tired narratives. Perhaps it was the irritating circumstances of quarantine coupled with my then standard cranky mood or maybe it was simply the ridiculousness of the statement. But that outright lie was one I could no longer let stand.
