German Wine Country




Located in the heart of Germany’s Mosel region, Bernkastel-Kues is a small town straddling the Mosel River. With steep slopes and slate-filled soil, it is known for its crisp Riesling wines. On a recent trip to the Dr. Loosen Weingut {wines available in the U.S.}, I toured the winery, tasted some amazing white wines, and strolled through the lovely streets of Bernkastel-Kues. German Rieslings range from a dry Qualitätswein trocken or medium-dry Kabinett feinherb to a semi-sweet Spätlese or sweet Auslese. Drier Rieslings are also great paired with turkey or in gravy for a Thanksgiving feast.
