Uncorking Blufeld Sweet Riesling 2012 Germany

This week's wine is Blufeld Sweet Riesling 2012 Germany.

Wine Maker Notes: blufeld's flavor profile makes it a great partner for many foods, from salads to smoked or salty foods (ham, smoked trout, etc.) or for simple grilled white meats.The sweet-acid balance makes blufeld a perfect partner for spicy cuisines that may challenge drier wines. This is a perfect choice for Chinese or Thai dishes.


My Notes: spiced pear, apples, melon, crisp, light, front of pallet, smooth sharp finish, lingering after taste, prickly but in the best possible way, light body, medium tannin/acidity, musty leather aroma, like books.

Crisp cool and refreshing, I have yet to experience a Riesling like this. Very pleasant smooth and just well balanced. A sweet but not SWEET wine. And for the price one heck of a bargain. I came across this quite by accident as I was in a discount grocery store.
