Hi guys

Just one question:

1) How it is that DRY wines taste better than SWEET ones? It seems the whole
world is for the DRY style except some oddballs like me. I offered a friend
some German riesling without showing him the label. Without hesitation, he
said that it shouldn't be a good bottle. I asked why and he said "nobody
drinks sweet wines and good wines are always dry". I agree to the first part
of his reason. Almost 98% of the whites sold in our shops are DRY but the
bottle he sampled was an $85 dollar off-dry Auslese by Robert Weil which is
considered not too bad a bottle. It is really the natural residual sugar
that puts people off or it's just FASHION that everyone must follow? I find
it hard to believe that so many people have the same taste buds. It like for
every 100, only 2 or 3 people like the sweet style. I am sure you prefer the
dry style as well...right?

Regards
