Impressions from 2009 Roter Hang Wine Presentation

Every Year at the beginning of June, Winemakers from the Roter Hang (Red Slope) Vineyards next to Nierstein/Rheinhessen hold their public wine presentation. It is to me one of the most beautiful wine presentations since it is held in the middle of the vineyards with an amazing view on the Rhine and all the lands below the hills. What also makes it so special is that you have to follow a course and every now and then, a tasting booth offers you all the wines stemming from the lot exactly behind it. A brilliant atmosphere is created! It goes on later at night when the so called “Riesling Lounge” at the top of the hill receives you with wine and background music untill the last thirst is quenched..

The summer wasn’t too hot and rather dull, but then in autumn, nice weather held on throughout the harvest season permitting the grapes to ripe out comfortably.

The pros’ say that this situation where the grapes have a lot of time to ripen is much better than a burning hot summer where the grapes ripe faster and might yield higher must-weights, but do not reach the right physiological ripeness due to water stress of the vines.
