The wine region of Mittelrhein
Confidential gem of the German Middle Rhine, a UNESCO landscape. Signature Riesling (~65%): pure, chiselled whites with signature notes of lime, green apple, white peach, white flowers and marked slate minerality ("gunflint"), taut acidity and crystalline tension — from dry to sweet. Also light Müller-Thurgau and fine Spätburgunder (Pinot Noir). ~461 ha on vertiginous terraces over steep schist overlooking the river.
The word of the wine: Local wine
Table wine, but with the origin indicated. It corresponds to a particular legislation: the freedom to use grape varieties is greater than for the AOC, but the quality criteria such as the approval tastings can sometimes be more demanding. The legislation is still evolving, but for the moment there are three levels: regional (e.g. Vin de Pays d'Oc), departmental and local (e.g. Côtes de Thongue).
