Riesling

High-quality German Riesling, Alsace Riesling and Riesling from select U.S. regions are some of the world’s great wines.

Riesling is rarely made with oak or blended with other grapes, its dry wines showcase the varietal’s pure green apple, citrus and peach flavors with bright and refreshing acidity; sweeter versions offer unique flavors of tropical fruit, honey, spice, smoke and sometimes even a hint of petrol.

In Germany, where the variety originates, Riesling wine labels indicate five different sweetness categories:

Kabinett (dry to off-dry), Spätlese (sweet), Auslese (sweeter), Beerenauslese (very sweet) and Trockenbeerenauslese (super sweet).

Late-harvest Riesling wines can be gloriously rich and complex, with the ability to age in the bottle and develop nutty, honeyed qualities. German, Austrian and Canadian ice wines are made with grapes left to freeze on the vine so that sugars are concentrated and water, in the form of ice crystals, separates out when the grapes are pressed. The result is a syrupy, yet pure and refreshing wine with citrus, peach and apricot flavors.

German and Alsace winemakers also make Riesling dessert wines using grapes that dry on the vine with Botrytis fungus, making deliciously complex creations with apricot, citrus, tropical fruit, honey and almond flavors.
