Thought I'd slip in a SW since WW doesn't have policing power on the Board [img]http://www.wines.com/ubb2/tongue.gif[/img]

At less than $5.50, this all-about-peaches choice is well worth cork pullin' effort. Peach nose, peach taste, peach after...& decent acidity. I like Hogue's "summer evenings on the deck" rec for this too.

Couldn't readily find an auslese, so went w/ Bucko's TNs & tried this one. Paired with tandoori chicken, could have done w/ some German acidity, but 4 of us were happy to have this juice.

That is the trouble that I find with CA and WA Rieslings -- too little acidity.
