Bordeaux, German and Loire Wine Dinner

[Scoop]

Great pairings, Bucko. Now I'm hungry (and thirsty)!

A question, however: I'm a big fan of German wines, but I am not familiar with the "GKA" acronym. Is then the Bert Simon from Alsace, perhaps? And what does "GKA" stand for? I assume "BA" is Beerenauslese.

It also sounds like the 1983s -- a great, hot vintage (I was living in Germany at the time)-- are starting to wane.

Cheers,
