In November of 2015, John Winthrop Haeger released his account of this white wine grape variety titled <em>Riesling Rediscovered<\/em>.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">At Claiborne &amp; Churchill, we make our Rieslings dry compared to the common sweet Rieslings of North America. As the book\u2019s description says, \u201cNow usually made dry in most of Europe and Australia, and assumed dry by most German consumers, Riesling is made mostly sweet or lightly sweet in North America and is believed sweet in the American marketplace irrespective of origin. Riesling is thus consequently\u2014but mistakenly\u2014shunned by the mainstream of American wine drinkers, whose tastes and habits have been overwhelmingly dry for two generations.\u201d We see that most of our guests that say they dislike Riesling are pleasantly surprised by the dryness of our varieties.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This book takes an in depth look into how variety, place, and style impact the final taste of the Riesling. The variety looks into how the cultivar of Riesling, a variety created by selective breeding, will change the taste. Place investigates how the location, topography, climate and other factors alter the wine. Style looks at how growing practices, processing, and storing methods modify how the winery\u2019s Riesling will taste. Haegar also talks about the history of Riesling, how it is made, and a map of winery locations. Another section of the book features a number of vineyards and wineries known for Riesling, including Claiborne &amp; Churchill.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.claibornechurchill.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/IMG_2574-1.jpg\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-563\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-563\" src=\"https:\/\/www.claibornechurchill.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/IMG_2574-1-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"Riesling rediscovered, Claiborne and Churchill, Riesling, John Winthrop Haeger\" width=\"500\" height=\"333\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.claibornechurchill.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/IMG_2574-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.claibornechurchill.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/IMG_2574-1-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.claibornechurchill.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/IMG_2574-1-1024x683.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Claiborne &amp; Churchill Highlight<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We are very honored to be highlighted in this renowned book. Our section starts\u00a0with a look into the Claiborne Vineyard. He discusses where the vineyard is located, climate, and other factors of our vineyard. In the next section, Haegar follows the story of Clay and Fredericka, the start of the winery, Coby\u2019s time as our winemaker, and a look into the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.claibornechurchill.com\/wines\/white-wines.php\">Riesling<\/a> we produce.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Make sure to grab a copy of <em>Riesling Rediscovered<\/em>\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Riesling-Rediscovered-Bold-Bright-Dry\/dp\/0520275454\">here<\/a>!

It is evident that he made sure to represent Riesling as a whole. As Oliver Humbrecht said, &#8220;John Winthrop Haeger has captured the essence of Riesling. The author goes against the modern trend that favors sweeter and softer styles, demonstrating that Riesling can be at its best as a dry wine. Riesling wine producers from around the world will applaud this research.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Riesling Rediscovered\u00a0Overview A new book has been released telling the story of something dear to our hearts: Riesling.
