German Wine

Wines From Germany

Germany is rightly famous for its high-acidity, fruit-inflected white wines, like the 2011 Riesling Halbtrocken Muschelkalk from Theodorus in Pfalz. German wine has international prestige, with the Mosel valley wines like the 2014 Riesling Kinheimer Hubertuslay Spatlese from Weingut Rudolf Trossen. The unique German soils and climate mean there’s a huge variety of German wine types, and Armit Wines is proud to be the exclusive UK importer of many German wines.

German Wine Regions

Germany’s Pfalz region, near the Haardt mountains, is responsible for some of the country’s most characterful and unusual wines, including the 2011 Riesling Halbtrocken Muschelkalk, a fruity, aromatic German Riesling wine from the Theodorus vineyard. Meanwhile the Nahe region’s volcanic soils mean many different grapes are grown side by side. It’s the source of the classic late-harvest German white wine Niederhauser Hermannshöhle Spätlese from Herman Donnhoff, with its full, rich fruity nose and exuberant elegance on the palate. Perhaps less celebrated than other European wine-producing countries, Germany is none the less rewarding to the dedicated explorer.
