When it comes to wine, Riesling has quenched the taste buds, numbed the mind, and is slowly chipping away at the life of my liver. Zarkotic dubs it to be "Angel Nectar".. that's some pretty cynical Angels. But whatever; whether these Angels are pissing it out, spitting it out, or crying it out, I want more.
Because each Riesling has its distinct quality and characteristic (if you want details... google) we have decided to do a little tournament.... I mean, tasting. We will be trying out 16 different Rieslings, comparing them to see who will come out to be #1.
Here are the 16 nominees:
(12) Dr. Loosen
(3) Dienhard Piesporter
(13) Muller Catoir
(14) Dr. Pauly
(9) St. Urbans-hof
(1) Josef Leitz Rudesheimer Drachenstein 'Dragonstone' Riesling*
(5) Schloss Lieser Kabinett
(8) Robert Weil Kabinett Trocken
(15) Markus Molitor Kabinett
(10) Wittmann
(16) Saarsteiner Riesling Auslese
(2) 2005 Selbach Riesling Dry, Mosel-Saar-Ruwer
(4) Penfolds Riesling Bin 202* (Was able to find another Penfolds Riesling. It'll have to do...)
(6) Caparoso 2002 deidesheimer Leinhohle Pfalz Riesling Kabinett*
(11) Hugel Reinhart Sipp*
(7) Kalinda Riesling*
*For those that we can not find in our local wine store, we will randomly substitute it with another Riesling we see fit (unless one of you kind, kind readers would like to help fund this great cause of intoxication by finding, buying, and shipping it over to us)
Stay tuned for Part II
(I have Bad Religion - Part II (The Numbers Game) in my head.... OMFG so fucking fitting), we need to get music files on here.
