The wine region of Rheinhessen

71% white region: Riesling is king (5,000 ha), dry to off-dry, ripe yellow fruit, apple, citrus and fine saline minerality. Supple, floral Müller-Thurgau for everyday, the world's largest Silvaner plantation with herbaceous, straight notes. Historic cradle of off-sweet Liebfraumilch. Some supple reds (Dornfelder, Spätburgunder).

The word of the wine: pH

Short for "hydrogen potential", the pH is a parameter that defines whether a medium is acidic or basic. A high pH gives a soft wine, a very low pH translates into a wine that is too acidic.
