Riesling and Beyond: Exploring German Wines
May 13

We are proud to partner with Wines of Germany for this Riesling and Beyond Masterclass, a focused tasting that highlights the range and precision of modern German wine.

Led by Alessandra Esteves, DipWSET and Master of Wine candidate, this class moves beyond the classic perception of Riesling to explore dry styles, key regions, and other important varieties such as Silvaner and Spätburgunder. The lineup is structured to compare grape varieties, regional expression, and winemaking approaches, with an emphasis on acidity, structure, and site.

Wine lineup:

• 2022 A.J. Adam Spätburgunder Rosé, Mosel
• 2023 Hans Wirsching Iphöfer Silvaner, Franken
• 2023 Robert Weil Riesling Trocken, Rheingau
• 2024 Weingut Heinrichshof "Sonnenuhr Rotlay" Riesling Trocken, Mosel
• 2023 Von Winning Sauvignon Blanc Trocken, Pfalz
• 2022 Meyer-Näkel Estate Pinot Noir, Ahr

A clear look at Germany’s diversity, from classic Riesling to lesser-known but equally important styles.

Cost: $30, includes education, wines, water and materials provided by Wines of Germany. 

Date: Wednesday, May 13th, 2026, from 6 pm to 8 pm.
