Riesling Alert!

[hotwine]

For those who might wish to sample four different grades of German Rieslings at a *very* small price, suggest you look for Schmitt-Sohne's little gift box. It contains four quarter-bottles (187 ml), one each of their Riesling Qba, Kabinett, Spatlese and Auslese for 1998, all for $6.99 at Sam's. And most unusual, they have screw-tops. They are really a perfect size for someone who hates to open a full bottle for fear of wasting most of it (like my dear mom), who only wants to enjoy one or two small glasses with dinner. I bought a few boxes to use as little gifts to spread the word about Rieslings. (Someone said the road to hell is paved with good intentions. I'll have to keep my own hands off of 'em if anyone else is to enjoy 'em!)
