Rheingau - German wine-growing region

The town of Hoch- heim am Main is also
located in the Rheingau region. This wine town with its famous wines is the origin
of the term –Hockâ? for Rhine wine which is still used in Eng- land today. The term probably became popular after Queen Victoria visited Hochheim in 1845. Due to the good taste of the Hochheim wines and the benefits to health attributed to them the phrase –a good Hock keeps off the doc!â? had
established itself rather quickly. Even a century ago wines from the Rheingau were among the most ex-
pensive on wine lists throughout the world, and especially in England.
