Great video 🙂 I did also not know about Romania 😳 keep up the good work ! BTW. Ich kann auch deutsch, aber ich war mir nicht sicher ob ich die Kommentare auf Englisch oder Deutsch schreibe, weil das Video auf Englisch ist 🤗 bin gespannt auf dein nächstes Video 😉 I am curious about your next video ! Cheers 🥂

Part of me loves the fact the world does not know about Riesling yet. This helps to keep the prices under control hahah

Riesling absolutely IS The Greatest white grape/wine variety in the world, especially when grown in Germany. From elegant Kabinett wines (dry or with a little residual sugar, especially from the Saar region) to well structured dry wines to accompany a good meal (including excellent Großes Gewächs wines) to Spät- and Auslese wines as aperitif all the way up to lavishly sweet Beerenauslese, Trockenbeerenauslese and even Eiswein. And they all can be excellent - no other grape variety in the world can achieve this, not even close. My love for wines started with Mosel wines and German wines are still on the top of my list.

We visited the Alsace region two years ago and purchased a Riesling from Albert Seltz (2011) for under $20. It was delicious! Out of curiosity, and just after watching this video, I “Vivinoed” this wine-4.4. No surprise. It was off dry but the acidity balanced the wine remarkably well. Great wine; great value.

Living near the Finger Lakes (New York, US) I love Riesling. Due to our climate German grapes are grown widely here. Would love to see a video on Gewurztraminer (my ultimate favorite variety). Great channel Konstantin!

As always great video !

I very much enjoy this channel. I am learning a lot. Thanks man

I have just found your channel and love it! I am a big fan of Riesling. The range of styles is breathtaking and it is one of the very few grapes that make wines which are equally good with or without food. I watched a video about wine from Ningxia in China recently and it occurred to me that Riesling would do well there, even though the Chinese themselves seem to be obsessed with Bordeaux blend reds... Anyway, I find your approach to wine very refreshing. It combines erudition with approachability and without any pretentious fuss. I look forward to seeing more of them. Thank you.

I drank the best risling on the island of Nantucket in 2007, made in Niagara falls. Unforgettable!

Haha the tag line did make me chuckle. Brilliant vid thanks

Good explanation of the history of Riesling as well as typical characteristics.

always something new to learn!!!! totally obsessed with your channel and videos !! cheers from Mexico!!

Thank you 🇬🇧

I'm glad you said "when it comes to quantity, Austria doesn't play a big role." Luckily there is very high quality: Ebner-Ebenauer Alte Reben, Zull Innere Bergen, Pfaffl Passion Reserve,.. I could bathe in those wonderful wines!

I am new to German riesling, but am enjoying the few I've tried. i love Chateau Ste Michelle's riesling! So for, they are my favorites.

Great one, spread the love for Riesling!

The great grape that make me in love with wine world.

I am looking forward to your episode on Chenin Blanc next. :)

I have never drunk good Riesling or don't remember .I remember drinking fresh my Uncle juice from Riesling who had vineyard in Alsace

Love Rieslings. Started with Alsace wines that are perhaps a bit more approachable, but now love the steeliness and high acidity of the Mosel too. Love sweet versions but my absolute favourites are aged dry Rieslings, when you can add a little honey and some nuts into the mix, but still have enough acidity. Lucky to have a few bottles of 20 year old Pechstein and other BW wines in my cellar for dipping into perhaps once or twice a year. Keep up the good work. Love your videos and nearly always agree so thanks for the education!

Thanks for an interesting video on my favourite white grape variety (besides Muscat Blanc a Petits Grains)! The great Austrian Rieslings definitely led me on the wrong trail because I would have guessed Austria being among the top 5 Riesling producers in the world when it come to quantity (when we talk about quality they surely are). Greetings, Alex

Really nice video about my favorite wine grape. Especially from Germany and particularly the Mosel. I love them from dry to dessert style with kabinett being my daily favorite. It is the acidity and lack of oak that makes it perfect to me. I could be pretty satisfied just drinking german riesling and red Bordeaux.

This got me thirsty! At least here in Sweden I'm pretty sure that a lot of people associate Riesling with sweet wine, which is nice but not always what you're after :) Discovered your channel recently and am a huge fan, keep up the great work!

That explains why my favourite German Rieslings come from the Pfalz with A Christmann´s Gimmeldinger Kappellenberg with Dim Sum such a perfect Sunday! I also find similar lime flavours in Australian Rieslings which I just love and often drink at home as they´re not easy to find in Germany!

Riesling is still underrated especially sweeter Rieslings one of the wines that got me into Riesling was a Beerenauslese so really sweet but so much aroma of different fruits and honey a wine that really inspired me to look for me good rieslings

I will go searching for some nice ones, looking forward to it now. Just returned from Chinon, in the Loire, and loved the Chenin Blanc from there in all it's different guises, so interested to hear they're quite similar and possibly related, so will go hunting. Thank you.

Never tried Riesling, but I will get one for sure

There is wonderful reisling coming out of the Great Southern region of Western Australia.One of those [Duke] was awarded the best wine in a Australia a couple of years ago.The best white wines being produced in Australia in my opinion.

Surprising info about Riesling and Romania. We have a lot of good wines, especially in the last fifteen years, but in the stores Rieslings are actually hard to find. A lot of Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay, Pinot Grigio or, last but not least, the local Fetească Regală or Tămîioasă, but very few Riesling. At least this is my experience. We have those imported from Germany in some supermarkets. Greetings from Romania. Noroc! Zum Wohl!

Second favourite white grape for me.

Egon Müller Schartzhof my favourite so far!!! Riesling rules, besonders dann, wenn die Restsüße mit der Säure “spielt”...

I recently discovered your channel and have enjoyed your videos. Until a few years ago I had actually never had a riesling. I took a vacation to the Finger Lakes region of New York and fell in love with the variety and the region. I have since moved there and was wondering if you have had rieslings from my new home and what you think of them. Thanks!

As someone moved to Stuttgart recently I really enjoy the Riesling from the region. Could you make a review of common reislings sold in markets and pairing them?

Mosel Riesling Auslese!!!!!!!!!

It's very likely that Romania isn't on the 2nd place with "real" riesling. Most of the riesling sold here is Italian Riesling (Olaszrizling, Welschriesling). Very few wineries produce "Rhine" Riesing, but the trend is towards favoring it.

just discovered your channel the other day. I absolutely love your knowledge, the details and your humor! Since we're talking about Riesling, is there any chance to get a vid about the Alssace? I traveled there a lot and it's still kinda mystery to me... And but that's another story, one about Gammay/Beaujolais? However, thanks for your input and effort!

I like the tagline too. lol

Love the videos! I enjoy learning from a Master of Wine, I have had quite a few Australian Rieslings and I'm always impressed by their freshness. I'd like to try German Rieslings but there aren't many here (Australia) to be found. I'd love to hear your thoughts on two topics - Orange Wines and the new wave of Canadian wine makers.

👍👍 A Scheurebe from Lingenfelder can be a very nice bottle of wine, if you can find one.

I live in Portland, and love Washington riesling. Chateau Ste. Michelle is a wonderfull, super affordable bottle. Great video. Thank you!

🍾🥂

Australian riesling with the lime juice and lime peel is quite interesting

have you already done one about albariño? great video!

And, thanks

I love Riesling and Glad to hear about my country Romania. Do you have Some Riesling wines made there to recomand?

Without a doubt Riesling is my favourite wine variety at least my favourite white.

Romania and Hungary have beautiful indigineous white wines. Do a feature! Like Furmint.

Schön wie sie erklären Bücher 📚 schön my english not good MS.Baum.

Great videos and I love Riesling, especially from Germany, but only bone dry ones and I find the labels hard to understand. Are there any rules of thumb on how to distinguish dry from off dry from sweet Rieslings from Germany. At the moment, I am reliant for searching for Trocken on the label. Thanks!

Chenin Blanc and Furmint...

is there a link to the glass you show?

What about Gewurtztraminer? Sorry if I butchered the spelling.

What do you think about Shoenburger wine ?I have this in my viniery. Do you know where I can buy good Schoenburger wine?

Have you tried willi schaefer wines?

And, they are all screwcap! For Luddite Europeans, that is good good good. If only burgundy would learn that.

German riesling and chenin blanc from the Loire are the two best white wine buys in the world.

10:16 "generally aren't very expensive" I'm not a Riesling fan. In my experience finding a well made dry Riesling (that really is dry

Great video! But why is it that you (almost?) never blend Riesling with other grape varieties?

I really like dry Riesling but cant afford higher end - can anyone recommend dry rieslings in the 10-15$ range?

Is Mario Muscat still made?

:)

Very good presentation but hard to understand German English

There is an experiment that is not talked about at all, the wine has been in contact with the cork for so long that with sure it has an effect on the taste. I would love your professional opinion.

egg fried rice lol is this guy watching uncle roger videos

I have a riesling from 1720. Should I drink it?

I think SB has even more freshness and accidity then Riesling but I think the main problem is the price. Most people buy white wines in discounts shops like Lidl, where below 5 euro you get plenty of SB and even Chardonay but Riesling isn't there. And even when you find cheaper one it is rather really low quality. For me it is the best white grape in the world.

I think Soave disagrees.
