Weingart Mittelrhein Riesling Feinherb

$22.99

Description

"Feinherb" has a few translations, from "harmoniously dry" to "finely tart," which both mean it's dry-ish with a cushion of slight sweetness to avoid puckering like a Sour Patch kid; sugar balances the naturally high amount of acid in the Riesling grape. A slightly sweet Riesling also means less sugar was fermented to alcohol, so this bottling is a mild 11% ABV. The resulting wine is fresh and soft, full of citrus and stone fruit with a light body that is great with spicy food, sushi and sashimi, or fruit desserts. Over in the Cheese Shop, this is a great companion to young Cheddar, German-made "Alex" whose rind is washed with elderflower cordial, or the spicy Pecorino Peperdelizia. No herb-flavored crackers, please, just the plain sea salt. -Peter Plaehn, Surdyk's Wine Buyer
