What the ‘Hock’???

February 10, 2025

If you’ve ever sipped a crisp Riesling or a luscious Gewürztraminer, chances are it came from a hock bottle—that tall, elegant bottle with gently sloping shoulders. But have you ever wondered where the name hock comes from? And, more importantly, can we make some wine puns out of it? Let’s dive in!

Where Does the Name “Hock” Come From?

The term “hock” is derived from Hochheim am Main, a German town famous for its white wines. British wine merchants in the 18th and 19th centuries began referring to wines from Hochheim as “Hock”, and over time, the name stuck—not just for wines from Hochheim, but for German and even Alsatian white wines in general.

Hock Bottles: More Than Just a Name

Hock bottles, also called Rhine bottles, Mosel bottles, or Alsace bottles, are tall, slim, and designed to showcase delicate white wines. The shape isn’t just for looks—it helps preserve the wine’s aromas and crisp flavors while preventing excess oxygen exposure.

Of course, hock bottles also became associated with sweet, inexpensive wines in some circles, leading to their reputation as the go-to bottle for budget-friendly sippers. But whether you’re drinking high-end Riesling or light Rose, hock bottles hold a unique place in wine history.

Holding an HP-13 in champagne green up against these little flowers is a great way to show the beautiful shades it gives off!

Silly Hock Bottle Jokes & Puns

Why don’t hock bottles ever get into fights?
Because they always take the high road!

What did the Riesling say to the Gewürztraminer in the hock bottle?
“Stop being so sweet—you’re making me blush!”

Why did the wine bottle refuse to gossip?
It didn’t want to spill the Riesling!

What do you call a hock bottle that’s always late?
A procrasti-Riesling!

Why did the hock bottle go to therapy?
It had too many bottled-up emotions!

Hock Bottles: Tall, Elegant, and Full of Character

Whether you love them for their historical charm, sleek design, or their association with some of the world’s finest white wines, hock bottles deserve a toast. Next time you pour a glass from one, you can impress your friends with a little history—and a couple of wine puns!
