First off, delicious. And nothing can cruise through all of the courses, from Thai squid to duck salad to steak, like a Riesljng with acid and some sugar. But the alcohol....7.5% the sheer pleasure of drinking and refilling and drinking a yummy wine without monitoring one's consumption. Bliss.

Nice classic Riesling. Perfectly balanced between sweet and crisp acid, but no special flavors.

Another great example of Mosel and the class of the Wehlener Sonnenuhr site. Initial nose of petrol, stonefruit, and honey. Palate showed a skillful balance of sweetness and acidity. Petrol dissipated to reveal even more luscious apple creaminess. I just keep thinking oh what this will be like in a decade.

Summer in a bottle. Delicious flower water. Soon I shall enjoy the bottle of Auslese I have in the wings.
