'04 Glenora Riesling

[Innkeeper]

We had another '04 tonight, and I think it was our last one. We had to posponded our April trip due to Bev's health problems. We will be going at the end of May hopefully.

Tonight it was with Wiener Schnitzel cooked the authentic way, with whole French style green beans almondine. This was one of best dinners we have had in a very long time.

We drank it out of gold gilded Bavarian Crystal that we inherited from my paternal grandmother who believed her parents recieved it from her parents before coming to America from the Southern Bavaria west of Munich. This greatgrandmother and husband came over in the 1850s. We think the crystal was made somewhere between 1820 and 1840. There was no problem identifying the pieces except for a piece that look like a small gobler. It holds 250 ml which is about a cup. We were told that in that timeframe these were used as wine glasses at least in that area. Rightly or wrongly we drank the Riesling out of them. It was marvelous.
