more—has been making some of the world’s most prized
wines since Roman times. Riesling is now enjoying an
international resurgence in popularity because many wine
lovers have become weary of white wine that tastes like
canned fruit and crave wines with more zip to them. No
wine on the planet has more natural acidity than German
Riesling, and that is what makes them so wonderful to
drink. That, and their deliciousness!
Tonight we learn about Germany’s pradikat classification
system of ripeness: Kabinett, Spätlese and Auslese, and
we sample all three, looking for changes in sweetness and
body. We also explore the different types of astonishingly
good dry wines, made not only from Riesling, but
Sylvaner, Pinot Blanc and Pinot Noir. Riesling remains the
world’s most versatile (and long-lived) white wine,
wonderful to drink with ham, turkey, chicken and seafood.
You will rarely experience an evening more satisfying than
this class.
