Erbacher Honigberg Riesling

About this wine from

Rheingau, Germany

Rheingau, whose name actually means “Rhine Region” is a wine region that lies on the northern bank of the Rhine, roughly between its confluences with the Main River and the Nahe River, where the Rhine suddenly bounds and flows to the west for some miles before bounding again and flowing northward as “usual” (that's why we here have a northern bank of the river). The climate in Rheingau is extraordinarily mild, considering its position and how far it lies from the mitigating action of any sea.
