Default TN: a 2004 Gunderloch

Last night Betsy wanted to use up some extra peanut sauce, made an old
favorite , a chicken salad with red cabbage and the sauce. I went
Riesling, the 2004 Gunderloch Nackenheim Rothenberg
Spatlese*(Rheinhessen). Big Rhine powerhouse of a wine, peaches and
petrol, sweet for Spatlese (at least for my more Mosel palate), good
length, some spiciness. I revisit over several hours, I like it best
when it's really cold, seems to give it more acidic backbone. This
probably deserved to age another 10 years, but it was quite nice now.
B/B+

Grade disclaimer: I'm a very easy grader, basically A is an excellent
wine, B a good wine, C mediocre. Anything below C means I wouldn't
drink at a party where it was only choice. Furthermore, I offer no
promises of objectivity, accuracy, and certainly not of consistency.*
