Riesling - A Wine for the Wine Hater

Now, this idea may make most of us gasp in shock and yell out "Grape Scots!:" someone saying they don't like wine is like someone saying they don't like breathing. But, it's true.

Definition: Riesling wines originated in Germany’s Rhein and Mosel river valleys, it was here that this white grape gained its tenacious foothold in today’s modern white wine market. A riesling can span a broad range of styles, being produced in both dry and sweet variations.

True Riesling wines have two dominant aliases, Johannisberg Riesling and White Riesling both of which refer to the authentic Riesling made from the Riesling grape. Other wines that have “Riesling” on the label, i.e. Grey Riesling, are entirely different wines. When looking for a dry style of Riesling, the label’s buzz words for dry will be dry or trocken (“ dry” in German). If a sweeter Riesling is on your list, then you will be looking for Auslese on the bottle’s label. If you’re looking for a crisp, refreshing and versatile wine, then you have found your match in today’s assortment of Rieslings.

Flavor Profile: Aromas lean towards the fruity-side with apple, peach and pear standing at the forefront mixed with delicate floral undertones. Rieslings tend to pick up flavoring from the mineral content in the soils they are grown in, making it common for hints of slate or stone to make their way into the aroma and flavor of Riesling wines.

Food Pairings: appetizers to desserts, pork, poultry or fish. Rieslings are also able to handle the spice and zest of favored Asian foods.
