The wine region of Rheingau
Rheingau is one of the most important of Germany's 13 Anbaugebiete wine regions. However it is far from the biggest; with 3,076 hectares (7,600 acres) of Vineyard">Vineyards documented in 2012, its output is around one tenth of that from the Pfalz and Rheinhessen regions. Located on the Rhine a 20-minute drive west of Frankfurt, the -gau suffix denotes that it was once a county of the Frankish Empire. The classic Rheingau wine is a DryRiesling with pronounced Acidity and aromas of citrus fruits and smoke-tinged minerality – typically more "masculine" than its equivalent from the Mosel.

UK government plans to allow alcohol-free drinks to be labelled ‘wine’
Under the current regulations, most wine needs to have an abv of at least 8.5% to be labelled as such in UK retailers and bars. There are some exceptions for wines produced in certain regions, which only need to have a 4.5% abv to be marketed as wine. Anything below that level must be sold as a ‘wine-based drink’, which has led to confusion among consumers. Those naming rules – which were inherited from the EU – do not apply to other drinks categories. For example, 0% abv and 0.5% abv drinks can ...
The word of the wine: Bordeaux barrel
Barrels of 220 to 225 litres. The toasting of the barrel to bend the staves (curved boards used to make the barrels) can vary according to the coopers and the demand. A gentle and slow toasting has little effect on the aromas. On the other hand, a strong toasting gives aromas of coffee or cocoa which will influence the taste of the wine. A wine barrel has already been aged for a year and has less impact on the wine than a new barrel.
