Bernkastel
2004 "Bernkasteler Doctor" Riesling Spatlese, Weingut Wegler – This was one of my most favorite wines. Had amazing minerality, with floral and kiwi notes. It had intense acidity and wasn't very unctuous or sugary. I'm ready to go on a trip to a dessert island with a case of this. Has a long life ahead of it, unless you're alone on a dessert island for a day. Last tasted 2007 Drink now-2020

Wine and Waves
I'm lucky to be a 31-year-old surf punk that gets to sample rare wines like the 1922 Pol Roger, the 1959 Petrus and the 2001 D.R.C. Richebourg--that doesn't mean those wines are always good, or worth the price. Since I've worked as a sommelier (in Monterey, CA) for high-end restaurants like Casanova, the Sardine Factory, and Marinus, I've honed my palate and I can choose a good bottle that won't break the bank. When I have enough time and money, I like to travel with my girl Lindsay Jackson to places with great wine and waves. I'm a certified sommelier (Court of Master Sommeliers) and am available to drink wine. Call: 831-521-8606 or e-mail: pwetterau@gmail.com
