Collection: Riesling

Riesling is a white wine with many expressions, from dry wines with pronounced freshness to styles with more sweetness. Here you will find our selection from Germany, including wines from Mosel, Rheingau and Ihringen in Baden. Start by choosing according to sweetness and body, and then use the vintage and the wine description to compare the bottles.

The grape is closely tied to German wine and is known in particular for its fresh acidity and aromatic character. You may encounter citrus, apple and peach, but aroma and flavour vary with growing site, ripeness and vinification. Fruity aromas do not in themselves mean that the wine is sweet. A Riesling can smell of ripe fruit and still taste dry on the palate.

When you choose Riesling, the individual wine's description is therefore more important than an expectation of one shared style. Look for information about sweetness, acidity and alcohol, and match it with what you would like to drink. The selection also includes an alcohol-free alternative based on Riesling. Always check the information on the specific bottle if alcohol content matters to your choice.

Riesling can develop new nuances with time in the bottle, but not all wines should be kept for the same length of time. Vintage, style and storage all play a part, and a mature wine offers a different experience than a young one. Feel free to compare descriptions of different vintages if you want to explore the difference. The name of the grape is not in itself a recommendation for long cellaring.

With food, a dry and fresh Riesling can suit fish, vegetables or light meat, while a wine with a little sweetness can be interesting with spicy dishes. Let both seasoning and sauce factor into the choice. If you want to compare more German wines, you can explore Germany.
