2008 Johannisberger Vogelsang Spaetlese dry by Weingut Trenz
This was the white wine served at the before mentioned business dinner in Germany. I just loved this fresh, crisp and bone dry Riesling from the Rheingau.
The ‘2008 Johannisberger Vogelsang Spaetlese dry’ by Trenz Estate is a wonderful wine, full of typical Riesling falvours, with a good body and a long finish. It has a Spaetlese ripeness and the elegant dryness of an exquisite German Riesling wine.
I had never heard of the producer, I must admit. Weingut Trenz is a family winery located in the heart of the Rheingau.
Johannisberg is one of the most famous locations (terroir) in this lovely wine region.
Michael Trenz is a vintner with “body and heart”, as we say in Germany. He carries the family wine-making tradition which goes back for about 105 years!
You should visit the place if in Germany. Enjoy the scenery and the wines.
I will, when coming from the airport the next time.
