I don´t agree! IMO Dry Rhine Rieslings are superior to dry Mosel Rieslings even for the top producers. Rheinhessen is coming up as a new quality producing area.

Cannot believe that there are no wines from Brauneberg on the Mosel in this list. IMO Brauneberg Juffer vineyards produce the best rieslings in Germany. Mosel rieslings are far better than those from the Rhine, espec. the dry wines.
