Once a forgotten gem, the Rheingau wine region is reclaiming its former glory, thanks to renewed investment and the efforts of estates like J.B. Becker. Since taking over in 1971, Hans-Joseph Becker has championed bone-dry Rieslings, pushing against the conventions of the time. His wines have striking structure, cellar longevity, and very little residual sugar, resembling Rheingau wines of 100 years ago.
