How Riesling Should Taste

Drei_riesling

As soon as I heard about Drei Riesling, I was sure I would like it. A wine made specifically to counteract the sweet German Rieslings that often appear on the American market? Sign me up, please.

Label
"Direct from Deutschland, this dry Riesling is sourced from steep vineyards in the Mosel Valley. Featuring crisp refreshing flavours and natural mouth-watering acidity, Drei defines drinking pleasure and is a great companion with food and friends."

My Thoughts
Drei's initial promise did not disappoint. Its clean taste, refreshing acidity, make it easily the best Riesling I've tried for this blog. Once they're distributed in the US, you can be sure it'll be a staple in our house.
