Top Notes For
Yesterday’s Wednesday Wine Committee, hosted by @Jeff Meyer , was so educational with fantastic German & Austrian wines. 1 sparkler, 5 whites, 5 reds, 1 dessert wine. All served blind as usual.
Runner up for my white of the day. Being Auslese in style, there was a ton of richness yet it didn’t feel like there was a massive amount of RS. Candied tropical mango, lychee, grapefruit, slate/minerality, with great acidity. I called this Auslese styled German Riesling.
