There's more to German wine than Riesling

PLUNGING into German riesling is like a great high dive into a pool of dazzling wines - graceful, complex and utterly delicious.

Some people gladly leap over the edge. Others hang back, mistakenly believing that all rieslings are sweet or shrinking from the supposedly indecipherable nomenclature of German wine labels.

Regardless of where they stand, most consumers share the perception that riesling represents the entirety of German wine.
