Silvaner Sundays – Rietsch Sylvaner
I first heard about the Rietsch Sylvaner Vieilles Vignes through Silvanerfest and their profile on Stephan Kraemer. They wrote that this wine was a great influence on him. So, I had to try it, too.

Unbottled – Rosé Tasting
I know mid-September might be a bit late for a rosé wine tasting. However, this category has so much more to offer than just a simple summer sipper on a terrace. In fact, the tasting focused on ‘serious’ rosés. Yet, we also had some unusual ones.
Unbottled – Hainbusch Riesling Thal
This article includes a lot of ‘firsts’: The first Riesling in this series. It is also the first time I tried a wine from the Mittelrhine region and the first vintage of the Hainbusch vineyard.
A Wild Orange Wine Tasting
For this wine regular’s table, I chose different orange wines. To be fair, there only eight were orange wines and the first one was a Pet Nat. Yet, it was very interesting to see the different effects skin contact can have on white wines.
Unbottled – French Red Tasting

We started with a Beaujolais / Maconnais comparison, tried a wine from the Northern and one from the Southern […]
Unbottled – Landbau Kraemer 3* Solera Silvaner

Unbottled – Sauvignon Blanc Tasting

Unbottled – Pranzegg Caroline
Our visit to South Tyrol really spiked my interest in the natural wine scene there. One of the vineyards, if not the most renown natural wine vineyard there is Pranzegg. In this case, I tried their Caroline bottling
A Sparkling Wine Tasting
It took me more than a month to find the time to write about the latest tasting by our wine regular’s table. We chose the topic of German sparkling wines and of course I mixed in a little surprise.
Unbottled – Azul Y Garanza Naturaleza Salvaje Orange
I had this bottle of orange wine in my cellar for a while now. So, it was the perfect bottle to open with friends at a wine tasting. Especially, when the bottle in question comes from Azul Y Garanza. One of my favourite producers from Spain, because of their excellent value for money.
