"But for about a decade, the young winemakers of Rheinhessen have been proving that good wines can very well grow in their homeland."
He writes about our 2010 Pinot Blanc:
"The 2010 Pinot Blanc dry from the Spiess winery in Bechtheim smells of melon and freshly split peas, is round and refreshingly fresh at the same time."
“Johannes Spiess from the Spiess winery in Bechtheim dares to use a dry scent in his 2011 Riesling Kabinett that some conservative wine drinkers will describe as a 'little stinker'. It is a yeasty note that has not been expelled from the wine after fermentation, emphasizing its freshness and liveliness. This is accompanied by a juicy note of blackcurrant.”
