A bit disappointed

[Thomas]

Barnsey, you point out something interesting. Many talk about spicy Gewurztraminer or Riesling as good with spicy food, but many times I have found this not to be the case. It is the fruitiness of Riesling that does well with spicy food, and it is the spiciness of Gewurztraminer that does well with fatty sausages or sour-sauerkraut.

This is a case where opposite does better than sameness, which is of course the reason for successful marriages (and I mean human ones too).
