Riesling day<br />

13th <strong>March</strong><br />

Riesling (pronounced reece-ling) is a real<br />

favourite amongst the industry, making<br />

some of the finest white wines on the<br />

planet. The grape variety is arguably most<br />

famous from Germany where it grows<br />

across all regions, however the French<br />

may have something to say about that<br />

with their stunning examples from Alsace,<br />

as well as Australia flying the flag for the<br />

southern hemisphere.<br />

Riesling is famous for its zippy acidity and<br />

diversity in styles, from lusciously sweet, to a<br />

mouth tingling bone-dry. It is because of this<br />

acidity that German Riesling is so wonderfully<br />

fresh, elegant and an excellent partner for<br />

food. When it comes to ageing Riesling, many<br />

believe it is the best of all white grapes; even<br />

world-renowned wine critic Jancis Robinson<br />

believes Riesling’s “are almost immortal”.<br />
