Few places offer quality, value and variety like Germany does. From Pinot Noir and Pinot Grigio to Pinot Blanc and Riesling, there’s a German wine for all tastes and occasions.

Beautifully structured, with pineapple, white peach and green apple flavours this has surprising power on the finish. By working closely with growers, Ernst and Thomas Loosen are able to assure excellent quality.

Dr L Grey Slate Riesling

Elegant, fruity Riesling from the celebrated Erni Loosen

This Pinot Noir has bright juicy cherry fruit flavours and is aged in barriques to give smoky depth and fine tannins. An excellent, approachable red wine for everyday dining. 

Johann Wolf Pinot Noir

A bright and juicy Pinot Noir with a smoky depth

This dry, elegant Riesling is made from specially selected grapes from the steepest slopes of the higher Nahe valley. Brilliant value.

Waitrose Blueprint German Dry Riesling

Brilliant value wine from the Nahe region

Made from grapes grown on the precipitously steep, Würzgarten vineyard in the village of Ürzig where all the work must be done by hand. A light-bodied, but concentrated wine that’s fruity with a spicy, mineral finish.

Dr. Loosen Ürziger Würzgarten Riesling Kabinett

Light yet concentrated wine, with a mineral finish

A great introduction to fine German Riesling, and a firm favourite of experts. Softer style for a fantastic food match. Exclusive to Waitrose. Selected by Xenia Ruscombe-King MW, Partner & wine buyer – Waitrose Cellar, Germany & Austria

Leitz Magdalenenkreuz Riesling Kabinett

The zesty palate shows citrus flavours and a sherbet zing, with elegant balancing freshness

An attractive soft-textured Pinot Noir perfumed with dark berry and spicy notes. Though Germany is more associated with light red wines, this is a voluptuous Pinot Noir from a quality-focused producer.

Karl H. Johner Enselberg Pinot Noir

Delicate single vineyard Pinot from sunny Baden

Elegant ruby colour with fine nuances. Gentle, well integrated oak flavours, juicy aromas of cherries and raspberries. A classic Pinot Noir.

Louis Guntrum Pinot Noir

A medium bodied red wine bursting with juicy cherry and raspberry flavours

From the celebrated Dönnhoff winery, responsible for many of Germany's most renowned Rieslings. A very classy, textured and grown-up white wine that will age enticingly.

Dönnhoff Norheimer Kirschheck Riesling Spaetlese

This Berg Roseneck Grand Cru will show its full charisma with ongoing ageing (about 10 to 15 years). Pair with a light coconut curry, or grilled duck breast and chutney.

Leitz GG Berg Rosenbeck Riesling

Plenty of herbaceous hints which linger softly on the palate

There is a reason few German Pinot Noirs make it to Britain - they're snapped up by discerning locals. This has the textbook texture of fine Pinot Noir with generous black cherry, spiced blackberry and clove notes.

Louis Guntrum Pinot Noir Reserve

Intense, complex, rich wine that's full of lime, pineapple and tropical fruit. Excellent with spicy foods and exotic flavours.

Louis Guntrum Oppenheimer Sackträger Riesling

Powerful wine with great Riesling character and mineral style

Outstanding bouquet with white peach, fresh pineapple, green apple, nettle and sorrel. Well balanced on the palate with soft acidity, lovely sweetness and long citrus aftertaste.

Schloss Johannisberger Riesling Grunlack Spätlese

An excellent vintage from this historic vineyard

Aged in the bottle for more than three years, this sparkling Riesling has citrus aromas, complex fruit flavours and a lasting finish. A great all-rounder to enjoy as an apéritif or match with any course.

Louis Guntrum Riesling Brut

Fine bubbles with ripe apple and brioche flavours.

Made using grapes from vines that are more than 40 years old, grown on steep slopes overlooking the Rhine river. Pair it with smoked fish or Thai green curry.

Louis Guntrum Hipping Riesling

Complex and finely textured with tropical peach flavours

Oh so fresh and zesty, this lingers long after the last sip. Loves being with spicy Thai or Indian curries.

No.1 German Riesling

Fresh and zesty, with flavours of pineapple and ripe mango, this is an easy-to-sip white from an internationally renowned German brand. Goes with spicy Asian food or flavour-packed veggie dishes.
