Wine tasting tours in Germany: Discover the unique terroir of the local vineyards
When you hear the word “wine”, you most probably think about France, Spain, and Italy. However, what you may not know is that Germany is one of the world’s top producers of white wines. Though not as heavily marketed as its main competitors, the elegant German Riesling can easily beat the French Sauvignon Blanc, Spanish Rioja Blanco, and even Italian Pinot Grigio. If you call yourself a white wine connoisseur and you have never been on any of the wine tours across Germany, you are seriously missing out. But no worries! We are here to help you fill the blanks in your personal wine tasting card.
Why wine travel to Germany?
There are thirteen wine-producing regions in Germany. Though they are all equally deserving of your attention, we recommend starting with the most prominent ones – namely, Mosel and Baden. Some of the vine plantations located here date back to the Roman era! But what really distinguishes the local vineyards from their foreign competitors is a one of a kind terroir. Since the climate in Germany is quite cool even in the southernmost regions, the white wine produced in this country has a special, distinguished taste and texture. Depending on the region, the legendary Riesling wines range from extra dry to super sweet. Want to try something different? There is no better place to start than Germany!
