This tasting at Schloss Johannisberg proved the greatness of Riesling. I will describe more of the background to it on Saturday.The tasting notes appear below in the order the wines were served, but I have to admit that the logic of the flights was never fully explained, although we did go roughly from dry to sweet. The background notes in italics tell us a great deal about the history of German Riesling and are based on what each wine producer told us about their wines. See the producers in my video, also published today.
