Yes and yes. Tried a Zind Humbrecht riesling at a free wine tasting a few weeks ago. Great stuff.

Nice ep.

Lots of German Riesling flowing at my house. I think the most misunderstood wine in the wine world.

yes and yes but i always end up in alsace instead of just pure german like mosel..valkenberg and carl graff,and then deiss and trimbach for alsace. pinot blanc and gwvertsty too.,

my friend shane and i had a big tasting ont he back porch not last summer but the one before and deiss came out ahead i think the gewurzt was our favorite

Thanks for showing some pinotage love!

QOTD: YES and YES. Riesling is my desert island grape. I have had more than two but I have probably had less than two HUNDRED, which makes me sad.

🙁

is alsace officially french? iguess it is but it seems so german 2me

Double the yeses. First intro to wine was German Rieslings with my father in law. I have wanted to, but have not yet tried some of the higher end rieslings. That Prum is $40 here, and there are tons of piesporters for around $10. I thought Pinotage was beleived to be related to Zinfandel?

Great episode again!

QOTD: yes and yes. I don’t drink German Rieslings very frequently — maybe one every 3-5 months — but the last one I tried (Leitz Dragonstone) was outstanding.

I had the Black Wing Shiraz a couple of days ago while visiting my parents. It wasn’t really my cup of tea, but I’m not one to reject wine offered to me when I’m not the one who bought it. Nonetheless, my non-wine-drinking brother basically condemned it as “the worst wine he’s ever had,” basically because he knew a)it was from Australia, b)it was cheap. The whole situation was really frustrating.

QOTD: A) The only German wine I’ve ever had was a Reislaner. B) No. I haven’t been into wine long enough to have tried as many different things as you have put on the show.

I have never had a German Riesling… yet.

QOTD: Yes and Yes. On Christmas Eve, we had a lunch of Riesling from Rancho Sisquoc and cheese (Brie and Point Reyes Blue) with currants, grilled pears, truffle honey, raspberry chipotle, and gingery jam. The other Riesling that I’ve had have was a Boeger.

Yes, I’ve had several; kabinett, spatlese, & auslese. I even bought a case of an auslese I think many many years ago. I have to admit though, it has probably been pretty close to 20 years ago since I bought my last German reisling. QPR is just not there for me.

QOTD: Yes I have had one. No not more than 2. 🙁

QotD: Yes, more than 2 – try more than 500 🙂

Great show today….I was totally stoked to see my favorite German producer on the show. I have most definately had many German rieslings having lived in Darmstadt as a soldier for three years. German Rieslings comprise about 1/3 of all the whites in my collection. Such an amazing wine with such long lived potential…I wish more new wine drinkers were open to trying them. I think with so many levels that there’s a wine for every moment with food…and that’s what I love about them. For those of you who think Alsace is superior I’d love to do a blind tasting of your Alsace wine with my German Trocken wine….see who wins. Hmmm….a possible eppisode down the road maybe?
