(TheDrinksBusiness) - German winemakers expect an excellent harvest this year – as long as the weather holds.
Speaking to the drinks business at the Rheingau Riesling Review, Dr Franz Werner Michel of Domdechant Werner’sches Weingut, said: “It’s on time, the weather is not too hot or cold and the Riesling is nicely mature.”
He estimated that the harvest would begin in four to five weeks time. He reported that the crop is healthy and the volume “so far” is alright but cautioned, “like in sport the last 100 metres is the decider.”
