Germany: Mosel wine producer hits record-breaking values at auction
Sep 27, 2011 6
(Harpers) - A top wine producer from the Mosel Valley thinks German wine is undergoing a renaissance, after reaching record-breaking values at auction last week.
Egon Müller, who owns land in Scharzhofberg in Wiltingen, on the River Saar, told Harpers that German wines are becoming “more and more popular again”.
“We’re coming out of a very long and bad time after the glycol scandal. We’ve had to fight for about 20 years to even be recognised as a serious producer of quality wines”. But he said the wines were now being much better received, and the industry was “moving forward” once again.
