Masterclass Wegeler

Geheimrat J: 4 decades of a Riesling icon In the 1980s, Riesling from Germany was generally produced in a naturally sweet style. This forced restaurants seeking to climb in the rankings to almost exclusively pair their courses with French wine. Wegeler's legendary cellar master Norbert Holderrieth found this situation unacceptable, and in 1983 created the first grand dry Riesling in Germany. It was a blend from sites on the finest vineyards in Wegeler’s imposing portfolio, with famous names such as Berg Schlossberg, Berg Rottland, Rothenberg, Dossberg, and Lenchen, just to name a few.
