The Next Level of Homemade Drinks
For the first article in this new series I chose a slightly unconventional wine region for Silvaner. This one comes from the Taubertal, but from the part that belongs to Baden. I will get into that later, but Florian and Philipp Ehrlenbach’s wines won me over completely. Let me tell you the Silvaner is no […]
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.
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.

Sauvignon Blanc is the favourite grape variety of my mother. So, we did a small tasting to explore the different aspects. With the seven wines we tried, I tried to show where Sauvignon Blanc comes from, what the most famous expressions are and what unusual bottlings can be found. All in all, it was a […]
