Not only Riesling - Berlin, Germany

After a long day at the ITB – Berlin we were looking for a nice little place to start the evening. We found a beautiful little wine shop and bar called “Not Only Riesling” in Berlin Kreuzberg. We really liked the idea and the concept, which is a wine shop in the day and a small little wine bar in the evening. The property does only sell German wines and have a big selection of the best winegrowers all over Germany. The boss, a nice man who is open to welcome every guest and is ready to talk and help every visitor with his big wine background. We were welcomed and seated by a friendly young woman from Austria.

She had a big knowledge over German wines. We did start with a light white wine from the Mosel area, which is perfectly suitable for a fresh aperitif. After that, we passed through the specialties of young wine dresser of the Mosel and Ahr area, for example Frederick Janus, Christoph Koenen or Michael Fiebrich. A plate with delicious German chees, salami, bacon and a fresh mustard has been served together with the wines. In the small menu, they want to distinguish local products. They offer just small snacks, which are chosen affectionately.
