Rheingau
	For over 1000 km the river Rhein flows from south to north, but the Rheingau makes a change. Here the river flows for ca. 30 km from east to west. This is caused by the Rheingau hills, an extension of the Taunus mountains. Located between Rüdesheim and Wiesbaden, the Rheingau forms the north banks of the majestic river, which reaches a widths of over one kilometer along the Rheingau. The region enjoys mild winters and warm summers. The vineyards are protected from cold winds by the forest-capped Taunus Hills and benefit from the heat-reflecting surface of the Rhine. Although the region is compact, there are many kinds of soil, including chalk, sand, gravel, all types of clay, loess, quartzite and slate. Two grape varieties predominate: the Riesling and the Spätburgunder. The former yields elegant wines with a refined and sometimes spicy fragrance; a fruity, pronounced acidity; and a rich flavor. The Spätburgunder wines are velvety and medium- to full-bodied, with a bouquet and taste often compared with blackberries. It is a quietly beautiful region, rich in tradition. Early on, its medieval ecclesiastical and aristocratic wine-growers were associated with the noble Riesling grape and, in the 18th century, were credited for recognizing of the value of harvesting the crop at various stages of ripeness, from which the Prädikate, or special attributes that denote wines of superior quality, evolved. Queen Victoria's enthusiasm for Hochheim's wines contributed to their popularity in England, where they, and ultimately, Rhine wines in general, were referred to as Hock. The world-renowned oenological research and teaching institutes in Geisenheim have contributed significantly to the extraordinarily high level of technical competence in the German wine industry today. The region is close to the commercial centres of Frankfurt, Wiesbaden and Mainz, but also offers endless opportunities for the visitor to follow sport and leisure activities or use the closeness of the cities for shopping, visiting the many historical sites or take a tour on the river Rhein.
