'06 Wiemer Semi-Dry Riesling

[Innkeeper]

We popped an '07 last night. We paid $19.99 each for two at Bremer's in Utica in June. The alcohol is down to 11.5%.

Like the '06 the sweetness in this one was barely detectable. Never-the-less it is a very rich wine with the usual Wiemer notes of apple, pear, and citrus on the nose and upfront. The fruit concentrated in the complex middle, and the finish was divine.

We matched it with well seasoned pork chops grilled over charcoal and hickory chips, cous cous, cole slaw, and sliced tomatoes. A very nice Labor Day repast.
