Rheinhessen

By Bingen, okay, exactly.

So Bingen, the famous Rheinhessen city that is vis-a-vis Rüdesheim.

So there's a cross, Nahe, Rheinhessen, Rheingau, so to say, right? Yes, of course.

So a little bit like an idea where we are.

Rheingau on the top right and Rheinhessen a little bit like to the east, right? And southeast, okay.

So that's the region of Nahe.

How many winemakers do we have here, approximately? Do you have the number?

Um, I drink a good amount of Riesling.

I like stuff from Rheinhessen.

Um, I drink...

And, and probably- You know, as much as I love my friends' wines, um, the ones that I buy largely are, are wines that I'm not trading for.

That's what we're going to talk about today.

And we broke out the map because this particular producer is from the Rheinhessen here.

And we're going to go all the way across here into this green area right here.

And a very famous area, the Rheinhessen, because we talk about, you know, the Rheingau and the Nath.

and the Mosel, but Rheinhessen right here flies under the radar and it is actually one of the largest areas for Weisbegunder, which is this particular grape.

A lot of people might not know, what is Weisbegunder? So basically it is German's version of what is Pinot Blanc.

So the French call it Pinot Blanc, the Italians call it Pinot Bianco, And the Germans call it Weißburgunder.
