German Wine Across the Decades
Aging red wines is common - but what about aging white wines? Kristen is joined by Binny's Wine Buyer Bill Newton and legendary German wine importer\xa0Derek\xa0Vinnicombe, plus producers\xa0Paul Anheuser and\xa0Stefen Bollig. The team talks recent German vintages, differences across years and drinking these wines aged and unaged. To illustrate, the team tries young and old bottles from the same vineyard side by side:\xa0Bollig Lehnert Piesporter Goldtropfchen Riesling Spatlese from 2018 and 2006. Also\xa0Paul Anheuser Keuznacher\xa0Krotenpfuhl\xa0Riesling Auslese\xa02001.\xa0And it's not all about white! Germany also makes great red wines, and the team tastes\xa0Heyden Pinot Noir 2016. These guys are fun!
