Starting July 1st, Wines of Germany is giving New Yorkers the opportunity to embrace their Riesling love with the 31 Days of German Riesling, a celebration of Germany’s most famous wine varietal.  

Participating wine stores nationwide will dedicate July to all things German Riesling, with in-store tastings and specials. In New York, two local stores have confirmed that they will host a German Riesling tasting as part of the nationwide program, with more stores continuing to sign on:

·         Dry Dock Wine + Spirits on July 19th from 4:00-7:00pm

·         Acker Merrall & Condit on July 10th from 5:30-7:30pm

Additionally, many restaurants, including Gramercy Tavern, will offer two German Rieslings by the glass for the entire summer. This is the fourth year Wines of Germany has partnered with Summer of Riesling to enlist over 100 restaurants and wine shops to celebrate Riesling all summer long!

We’re kicking off the month of July with a Riesling blowout on Tuesday, July 8 when reigning German Wine Queen, Nadine Poss, hosts the 5th annual Riesling Concert Cruise aboard The Jewel as it sails around New York Harbor for 3 hours ($45). Tickets are available for purchase.

A full list of participants, as well as additional information about the program can be found at 31DaysGermanRiesling.com.
