Mitelhrein

2006 Toni Jost Bacharacher Hahn Kabinett Riesling – Mittelhrein, Germany
If someone likes white zinfandel, help them change their life by giving them this. Jost is one of the best producers in the Mittelhrein region .Riesling, which is arguably one of the best white grapes in the world, takes on such a wide array of flavors that it’s easy to say, “More please.” It has intense acidity on the back part of the tongue and a bit of sweetness on the tip of the tongue. This one is low in alcohol, and the flavors are harmoniously integrated. Only a little of this leaves the country. Therefore, enjoy the spice, petrol, honey, leeches, apple, kiwi, and nectarine, flavors. Don’t be a sheep, try this wine for yourself. Last tasted 2007 Drink now

Wine and Waves

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
