Reisling

[Wenams]

I was with one of my managers the other day interviewing potential hires for our restaurant. Not only was I aghast at her interviewing skills, which relied on tactics of intimidation, but I was equally aghast at how she put the applicants on the spot by asking obscure wine questions. She really lost me when she was scolding the applicant for not knowing that the reisling grape was the heartiest ( in regards to it's growth not taste) but she also added that it is an acceptionally DRY wine and described it as PEPPERY.....AM I CRAZY? I have always been taught (and tasted) that Reisling wines are sweet and usually a dessert wine.
I'm really hoping that I'm right here, because I need to put this pompous woman in her place. So, I look forward to any wisdom that I can get!!!! [img]http://www.wines.com/ubb2/smile.gif[/img]
