Grape Varieties

Riesling

Germany (original); Alsace, Austria, and elsewhere

One of the most versatile and age-worthy white grapes, capable of ranging from bone-dry to lusciously sweet while retaining vivid acidity throughout.

High acid; ranges bone-dry to very sweet; floral, citrus, petrol notes with age.

Germany, Alsace, Austria, Clare Valley.

Off-dry Riesling is a classic match for spicy food — its sweetness and low tannin tame heat.
