The Ahr valley suffered terrible losses during the recent floods. The vineyards – some of the best in Germany – were not spared. Let’s taste a couple of their signature wines – Riesling and Spätburgunder (Pinot Noir) and learn about this great region.
At the same time, we could try something very interesting: compare these varietals with Rieslings and Pinots from around the globe. I have examples from New Zealand, Luxembourg, France and Italy (list not exhaustive) – so we can see how climate, soil and culture affect the wine in the glass.
I will supply the maps and diagrams – as well as the bread, meats and cheese – to make sure that the evening is enjoyable and educational.
Please make sure that you are vaccinated, tested or recovered.
The venue is a beautiful airy apartment in Schöneberg – on the roof terrace weather permitting.
Prost! Sean
