German 2013s – a guide

Thursday 9 October 2014 • 1 min read

9 Oct - Today's Throwback Thursday article is a reprise of our guide to Germany's 2013 vintage, not least because earlier this week we published my report on Justerini & Brooks' current German offer (mainly 2013s), and next week we will be publishing Michael Schmidt's comprehensive tasting notes from this year's VDP presentation of Grosses Gewächs in Germany – 2013 whites and 2012 reds. You may also be interested in my recently-published cri de coeur about the difficulty of selling German wines, Riesling – will it ever catch on?

The vintage high on acid: 2013 is looking mouthwatering at its best, caustic at its meanest, and it might well be the one in which the sweet wines provide the most satisfying long-term pleasure. Michael, Julia and Jancis reveal the beauties and the disappointments in this line-up of articles below (most recent first).
