Characteristics “Just south of the Rheingau, Riesling from Germany’s largest region (by total plantings) varies greatly depending on the producer and subregion. That said, typically the Rieslings from here have mild acidity, medium body, and more pronounced stone fruit fla vors.” -- Wines of Germany “Further south of Rheinhessen lies the Pfalz, which is significantly warmer and drier than its northerly neighbors. Germany’s second largest wine region, the Pfalz produces more Riesling than anywhere else in Germany. Riesling here is fuller-bodied with flavors of orchard fruit and can exhibit earth and spice charac teristics at times.” --- Wines of Germany Region Website rheinhessen.de pfalz.de Rheinhessen Image from Wines of Germany Pfalz Image from Wines of Germany uploads/Geographie/ riesling-rheinhessen-and-pfalz.pdf
