European Championship for dry Riesling

What to know

The tasting takes place on Thursday, September 24, 2026 from 19-23 at Mr Ruby. Price 799,- per participant. Germany is a big part of this tasting. Can Germany do it? Yes, Germany can! Germany is by far the largest supplier of Riesling to the world With its 23,600 hectares of Riesling, Germany far exceeds France's 4000 hectares and Austria's 2000. In fact, that would allow me to throw 9 Germans into the tasting You only get a 7, so no drama about it please, the wines are tasted blind and we finally give grades and choose the best wine of the night We taste in four heats tasted from "Riesling" Veritas Riedel glasses.
