      There are some god ones, for sure, and I do like them but Alsatian/Luxembourg wines are the same as Germans wines IMO. However there are some really good whites form elsewhere though! :) (However if I am in a whit mood Gwertz is damn nice tipple)

        Sorry, but wine and Germany have nothing whatsoever to do together.

        Oh what tosh, Alsace is almost German anyway! ;P (But seriously, there are some really nice sweet wines in Germany, as well as some dry ones)

          your fellow co-citizens actually pour water with gas into their wine glass...

          i don't understand o.O , and i never saw that before. [EDIT:] Now i got it :)! You mean "Schorle" (Wine+Water with gas), yeah this makes cheap wine for 1 or 2 euros drinkable ;) But i actually feel sorry for anyone who never tasted German White wine :) I have tried lots of wines from all over the world, even from countries i didn't expect good wine from. But German White wine is definately one of the best, even though i pretty like now the southafrican one. It's not only France that can produce wine, and imo the few good reds from France are not as a good as the ones from spain, mexico or southafrica. But it's still a matter of taste and preferrence if dry, fruity, heavy or light, cuvee and of course the grape variety.

          Ah, a 'spritzer' in English. I was at a wine fair recently in Germany and got a chance to taste a lot of wines I had heard of such as the bierenauslesen wines and they were every bit as good as I hoped. Very nice.

            No, Software engineer. If I want to drink a glass of wine at lunch I will, and bedamned those who say otherwise!

                        it was German/French/German/French so its only a matter of time till its back to German
