videoRheingau Riesling Explained: Hallgarten, Geisenheim and Rüdesheim
In this episode of Mastering Germany, I continue the journey through the Rheingau, moving into the central west of this famous Riesling region. We explore Hallgarten, home to some of the highest vineyards in the Rheingau, including Jungfer and Schönhell, before moving through Oestrich, Doosberg, Lenchen, Winkel, Geisenheim and Rüdesheim. Along the way, I look at key vineyard sites such as Hasensprung, Schloss Vollrads Schlossberg, Rothenberg, Berg Kaisersteinfels, Berg Rottland, Berg Roseneck and Berg Schlossberg, explaining how slope, aspect, altitude, soils and the Rhine all shape the style of the wines. This is a deep dive into one of Germany’s most important wine regions, with a particular focus on Riesling, vineyard classification, geology and the changing role of cooler sites in a warming climate. The full Mastering Germany series is available in the Wine with Jimmy Club, along with additional deep dives, professional tasting notes, food and wine pairing content, and exclusiv
