Written By: Brian Freedman on Mon, Jan 29th 2007
The world-renowned vineyards of Nierstein are found here, and as a result, the Rheinhessen wine region is considered to be the home of the some of the best Rieslings in the world. Indeed, it is not an overstatement to draw the comparison between Nierstein and the vineyards of Vosne-Roman�e in Burgundy, whose world-class Pinot Noir is arguably of the same high quality as the best of Rheinhessen's Riesling. Such is the importance of grape-growing in the Rheinhessen region that there are more than 400 vineyard sites here, and while most of them do not produce wine of the highest quality, their presence is important nonetheless in terms of the table wines made from their grapes.Want to find the perfect Rheinhessen wine?
