Riesling is the most transparent of white grapes, showing off with precision in its aromas and flavors even minute effects of soil and climate variation. Top Riesling vineyards have the potential to produce dramatically different wines, with intriguing terroir scents and a dazzling array of fruit sensations, while every vintage manifests different. In this tasting seminar Sandy Block presents Rieslings of all origins and styles, from dry, to minerally, to off-dry, and even
including a luscious dessert nectar. Participants will explore the diversity of Riesling expressions from Germany, Alsace, Austria, New York State, cool climate California, and other emerging regions.
