Default There's No wine Like This Wine.

Gentlemen,

Which wine other than the top quality Rieslings from MSR has the following
traits?
1) Crammed with fruity aromas of ripe apricots, peach, honey, grapefruit,
minerals etc., (dubbed as Fruit Bombs by connoisseurs)
2) light and refreshing with less than 11% alc. to go with hot explosive
Asian cuisines and sweltering summer,
3) unwooded for the true character of the berries (no foreign aromas like
butter, vanilla, toasted bread etc inherited from various types of wooden
barrels),
4) enough acidity to cut through fatty or oily food,
5) that can be cellared for 10 years and beyond and still drinks deliciously
refreshing,
6) ability to reflect terroir and true to its soil,
7) well-balanced between acidity and natural sweetness (approx. 1.5% ~ 2%
residual sugar),
8) 100 % hand harvested grapes,
9) can be made into a wonderful dessert wine that fetches more than US$1000
a bottle in annual wine competitions the World over,
10) received high scores from reputable wine authorities like Wine
Spectators, Robert Parkers, Jancis Robinson, Hugh Johnson and more,
11) once regarded as a white wine on par with or not better than the best
from Bordeaux.
12) the favourite wine of Queen Victoria.

Like it or not, the invincible, humble, mistreated, utterly misunderstood
even hated due to trends, Riesling is regaining its long lost throne as one
of the finest white wine on the planet.

Regards
Ray
