    What is Riesling?

    Riesling originates from Germany, where the grape has been cultivated for centuries. It is often associated with German regions like Mosel, Rheingau, and Pfalz but is now also well-known in France (think Alsace) and Italy (Langhe). The Riesling grape is known for its adaptability, which is why it can even be found in the United States and Australia.

    Riesling is generally recognized for its vibrant acidity. Rieslings from cooler climates like Germany often have higher acidity than those from warmer regions. The flavors strongly depend on the wine region and range from citrus and green apple in younger Rieslings to ripe peach or honey in sweeter or aged varieties. Every Riesling tells its own story!

    King of the White Grapes

    Riesling is often called the king of white grapes due to its adaptability. The terroir of the Riesling grape is directly reflected in the wine. German and Italian Rieslings often come from cooler climates than French Rieslings, which is why they are more likely to exhibit hints of citrus and green apple. German Rieslings tend to emphasize minerality, while Italian Rieslings sometimes reveal tropical fruit notes.

    French Rieslings grow in drier regions with more sun exposure, resulting in a fruitier flavor profile. In addition to terroir, production methods also influence Riesling wines. Riesling is available in a wide range of styles: dry, sweet, and even sparkling. What many people don’t know is that Riesling has exceptional aging potential, thanks to its high acidity and balance. High-quality Rieslings can age for up to 10 years, developing complex mineral flavors while retaining their freshness.

    Riesling is a versatile choice for food and wine pairings

    However, it’s important to consider whether you prefer a dry or sweet Riesling to match with your meal. A dry Riesling pairs well with fresh dishes featuring citrus, thanks to its acidity. Think of combinations with seafood like oysters, mussels, or grilled white fish. On the other hand, a sweet Riesling pairs wonderfully with appetizers, balancing perfectly with blue cheese or spicy snacks.

    If you’re looking for a dessert wine, a sweet Riesling is an excellent choice. Planning to serve roasted chicken or turkey? Try pairing it with an oak-aged Riesling!
