The Nahe region is named after the river that crosses the valleys of the forested Hunsrück Hills toward Bingen on the Rhine. The Nahe is geologically diverse, with three distinct major subregions plus many interesting outlying towns. Therefore, Nahe wines are capable of being diverse despite being produced from only a few grape varieties. At their best, Nahe Rieslings are incredibly complex, with distinct floral, fruit, and mineral elements.
