Staff Pick Notes

Any time White !!!

This is a good any time white wine. The color of this German Riesling is similar to pale straw or hay. The aroma is of light essence of honey and citrus or lemon zest in a honey tea. And the taste on the palate happens in three stages, first light flavors of honey then citrus and for the finale crisp minerals. Have this Kabinett which usually indicates dry with some not to spicy pad Thai. Another good match would be grilled anything as the char from the grill and the mild honey flavors in the wine highlight each other with contrast. I didn't want to stop drinking this German wine. Germans make the best Rieslings!

They are careful to retain the delightful honeyed, flinty flavors that the best sweet Rieslings have always displayed. Alsace, of...
