I told her, "Wow, it's the most petrol in the nose I've had in a young FL Riesling probably ever. And I like it." In other words, I think you and I have very similar preferences in our Riesling! Thanks for the thorough explanation of process, and for tasting blind. Great stuff as usual. Tom,

Your tasting notes in the Wiemer are almost exactly, word-for-word, what I said to my wife when we first tasted it back in Feb. I told her, “Wow, it’s the most petrol in the nose I’ve had in a young FL Riesling probably ever. And I like it.” In other words, I think you and I have very similar preferences in our Riesling!

Thanks for the thorough explanation of process, and for tasting blind. Great stuff as usual.
