I can't get too excited about Rheingau wines in general.
I had a guest yesterday who was horrified that we only had Riesling from Rheinhessen and Pfalz by the glass. I had a fruitless conversation with him about how I think those two regions are much more interesting and dynamic. The prospect of drinking a non-Rheingau Riesling was apparently so awful that he took a Silvaner instead.
There's a certain market for Leitz, and Robert Weil for that matter, Americans. Not bad wines but missing that wow factor for me. I have a bit of the same feeling with Ernst Loosen, is it just the ubiquity??
