Salmon Run Riesling

[Innkeeper]

2002 Salmon Run, New York, Johannisberg Riesling ($11.95 at Winery). 11.5% alcohol. This is the one that was slightly off dry. Gives a sense of spiced apples on the nose and upfront. More appley and some peachy fruit along with surprising cripness, despite the RS, cross the palate. Very nice remembrance on the finish.

Matched it purposely with boneless, skinless chicken breasts marinated in roasted garlic salsa (1/2 C), freshley squeezed lime juice (1/3 C), and Hoisin Sauce (2 t), all whisked together; grilled over charcoal with soaked mesquite chips. All accompanied with salad in blue cheese dressing.

Great match, but would also like to try it with a nice Gewurztraminer.
