With most of our passport tour, the biddies have focused on regional varietals, styles, and the history behind how the country became known as a wine region. With Germany, they focus much more on the laws and labeling of German wines in order to better educate how to pick the right bottle off the shelf. With an intricate and unique labeling system, there is certainly a lot to learn to make sure you pick the right Riesling for yourself!
