You will not be surprised that this is a topic the Wine Rambler is very interested in. Earlier in May I went to the Delfina Gallery, near London Bridge, to attend the Riesling & Co tasting and the German Wine Question Time panel discussion that aimed to address the topic of how to improve Germany's place in the UK market.</p> <p><img alt="is the time for traditional German wine design over?" src="https://www.winerambler.net/sites/default/files/images/rieslingandco2011_domdechant.jpg" width="500" height="332" align="center" class="inline inline-center" /></p> <p>The Riesling & Co agenda is closely linked to this, driven by "a group of dynamic German winemakers who collectively have set themselves the task of reviving the German wine industry across the world." An ambitious mission, and one that also influenced the brief for the panel discussion:</p> <blockquote><p>The UK trade has been talking of a Riesling renaissance for the last 10 years, but despite the hype, Germany - arguably the home of the greatest Rieslings worldwide - still hasn’t cracked it. What can the UK trade do to make sure that UK consumers don’t miss out on what Germany has to offer?</p></blockquote> </div> <span class="field field--name-uid field--type-entity-reference field--label-hidden"><span lang="" about="https://www.winerambler.net/users/torsten" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype="" xml:lang="">torsten</span></span> <span class="field field--name-created field--type-created field--label-hidden">Tuesday, 31/05/2011</span> <div class="node__links"> <ul class="links inline"><li class="node-readmore"><a href="https://www.winerambler.net/blog/future-german-wine-uk-london-riesling-co-tasting-german-wine-question-time" rel="tag" title="The future of German wine in the UK: London Riesling & Co tasting & German Wine Question Time" hreflang="und">Read more<span class="visually-hidden"> about The future of German wine in the UK: London Riesling & Co tasting & German Wine Question Time</span></a></li><li class="comment-comments"><a href="https://www.winerambler.net/blog/future-german-wine-uk-london-riesling-co-tasting-german-wine-question-time#comments" title="Jump to the first comment." hreflang="und">6 comments</a></li><li class="comment-new-comments"><a href="https://www.winerambler.net/taxonomy/term/751/feed" class="hidden" title="Jump to the first new comment." data-history-node-last-comment-timestamp="1306955160" data-history-node-field-name="comment_node_blog"></a></li><li class="comment-add"><a href="https://www.winerambler.net/comment/reply/node/1440/comment_node_blog#comment-form" title="Share your thoughts and opinions." hreflang="und">Add new comment</a></li></ul> </div> Tue, 31 May 2011 07:45:31 +0000 torsten 1440 at https://www.winerambler.net https://www.winerambler.net/blog/english-vs-german-wine-personal-thoughts-wine-dialogue <span class="field field--name-title field--type-string field--label-hidden">English vs German wine, personal thoughts on a wine dialogue</span> <div class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-body field--type-text-with-summary field--label-hidden field__item"><p>This is a story about a dialogue, a dialogue between English and German wine - or rather my personal experience of it. Moving from Germany to London made me see wine differently and I think I have benefited from this experience. In particular, it was a blending of national perspectives, perhaps even bias, that had some fruitful effects and made me look out for and experience things in wine I would otherwise not have done. While this is partly a personal story, it can also be read as a plea to look at wine in different ways and turn whatever national drinking bias we might have into a force that makes us see more, not less.</p> <p><img alt="" src="https://www.winerambler.net/sites/default/files/images/flag.png" width="500" height="300" align="center" class="inline inline-center" /></p> </div> <span class="field field--name-uid field--type-entity-reference field--label-hidden"><span lang="" about="https://www.winerambler.net/users/torsten" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype="" xml:lang="">torsten</span></span> <span class="field field--name-created field--type-created field--label-hidden">Thursday, 25/03/2010</span> <div class="node__links"> <ul class="links inline"><li class="node-readmore"><a href="https://www.winerambler.net/blog/english-vs-german-wine-personal-thoughts-wine-dialogue" rel="tag" title="English vs German wine, personal thoughts on a wine dialogue" hreflang="und">Read more<span class="visually-hidden"> about English vs German wine, personal thoughts on a wine dialogue</span></a></li><li class="comment-comments"><a href="https://www.winerambler.net/blog/english-vs-german-wine-personal-thoughts-wine-dialogue#comments" title="Jump to the first comment." hreflang="und">6 comments</a></li><li class="comment-new-comments"><a href="https://www.winerambler.net/taxonomy/term/751/feed" class="hidden" title="Jump to the first new comment." data-history-node-last-comment-timestamp="1270887180" data-history-node-field-name="comment_node_blog"></a></li><li class="comment-add"><a href="https://www.winerambler.net/comment/reply/node/527/comment_node_blog#comment-form" title="Share your thoughts and opinions." hreflang="und">Add new comment</a></li></ul> </div> Thu, 25 Mar 2010 16:27:53 +0000 torsten 527 at https://www.winerambler.net
