The wine region of Rheingau
Historic cradle of great German Riesling: age-worthy whites of rare precision, from taut dry (Trocken) to botrytised sweet (Auslese, Beerenauslese, TBA) with notes of peach, citrus, acacia honey, noble petrol and slatey minerality. Riesling king on ~80% of the vineyard. Also Spätburgunder (Pinot Noir, 8%), notably the fine, silky Assmannshausen. 3,100 ha on south-facing slopes overlooking the Rhine (Hesse).
The word of the wine: Overmaturation
When the grapes reach maturity, the skin becomes permeable and progressively loses water, which causes a concentration phenomenon inside the berry. This is called over-ripening or passerillage.
