@Severn Goodwin, I actually stopped buying Rieslings (German, to a lesser extent Alsatian and Australian), because we just don’t tend to drink them as often. Which is DUMB on my part, since whenever I do open them, lots of oohs and aahs around the table!

@Severn Goodwin , great point, especially when you’re at the end of a dinner and you’re debating whether your guests will share another bottle!! 🤷

Viña Tondonia Reserva Rioja Tempranillo Blend 2011

You're not 40 every day and I wanted a special wine to celebrate that special day. Fortunately the wine bar / open kitchen restaurant we went to had that special wine, amongst 400 references, that I had been desperate to taste for a long while. I didn't take notes so it's all from memory, but the nose is what I liked the most. Coconut notes, leather, cherries, coffee... I spent probably 15 minutes in total smelling that wine. The palate was great with some acid drive, some matter but not in an overwhelming way, some gentle, well integrated tannins in the rear, before a long finish with savoury notes, red fruits, coconut and that gentle grainy tannic layer. A great experience to top up a day to remember.
Oh and if you happen to be in Warsaw, Poland and be looking for a great wine place, make sure to check our Kontakt - wino & bistro.

Would like to spend more time with one of these. Many Riesling use cases fly through the mind. Lees in clear focus. — 25 days ago

Graacher Himmelreich Kabinett Riesling 2018

Kleur: Helder lichtgeel met groene reflecties.

Neus: Aroma’s van rijpe peer, citrusvruchten zoals citroen en grapefruit, aangevuld met subtiele minerale tonen.

Smaak: In de mond presenteert de wijn zich slank en verfrissend, met sappige smaken van ananas, mango en limoen. De levendige zuurgraad zorgt voor een harmonieuze balans tussen zoetheid en frisheid, typisch voor een Kabinett-stijl. 

Afdronk: Een aanhoudende, verfrissende afdronk met een minerale ondertoon en een hint van honing.

Deze Riesling is nu al geweldig lekker en zeer toegankelijk, maar heeft ook potentieel om verder te rijpen, waardoor de complexiteit en diepte in de toekomst verder zullen toenemen.
