Riesling, thought to have originated in the Rheingau region of Germany, has been enthralling wine drinkers for centuries. Its renowned for expressing terroir – its specific growing conditions – resulting in different regions producing very unique styles.

From the perfumed, honeyed wines of Germany's Mosel to the rich, full-bodied styles of Alsace, the zesty, lime-driven expressions of Australia to the citrus and stone-fruit elegance of New Zealand, riesling offers a style to delight every palate.

The Tastings Team will be exploring these unique styles through a tasting of four wines that showcase the character of this celebrated variety.
