This 80-page strong Issue includes Part I of our extensive 2025 Vintage Report with 300 wines from 26 Estates. Here is what is in store.
The 2025 growing conditions were “stress free” to quote one grower, but the harvest was anything but “stress free.” Does that mean a difficult vintage? On the contrary, it’s one of the most beautiful and versatile vintages of recent times!
We review the growing conditions, describe the wine styles, and share our buying guide!
Part I of the Vintage Report includes 16 detailed Estate Reviews (with 300 wines sampled). It also provides detailed tasting notes for another 60 wines from a further 11 Estates. The report also includes recent releases from past vintages (2024, 2023, and 2022).
On top of classics from great established Estates, we also unearthed some beauties from upcoming and still largely unknown new growers.
The issue includes a summary of dry Riesling highlights from the Mosel tasted so far.
