Paul and Stefania Romero joined the WS S FL tasting group at the the home of their largest customer and brought with them some unreleased wines for us to try and enjoy. As if that weren't enough, a long-time member, MiamiAtty, proposed to his long-time girlfriend that made for a very memorable evening. Congrats to them!!

A very dry white wine with crisp citrus fruit (lemon jumps out) with some almond and minerals on the finish.

1999 Joh. Jos. Prüm Wehlener Sonnenuhr Riesling Auslese 90 Points
Germany, Mosel Saar Ruwer
The antithesis of the Kerpen as this older wine was quite pale in color for its age. Once again, confirmed on the palate with a light texture, higher acidity, but still some nice sweetness. Not nearly as concentrated as the Kerpen.

2005 Kerpen Wehlener Sonnenuhr Riesling Auslese 93 Points
Germany, Mosel Saar Ruwer
A rather dark golden color for such a young wine that hinted at the richness of the wine which was confirmed on the palate. Thick texture with medium acidity that tasted like honey sprinkled apples.

2009 Stefania Chardonnay Chaine d' Or Vineyard 90 Points
USA, California, Santa Cruz Mountains
Pronounced oak, but with light to medium body and bright acidity that keeps it from any sign of flabbiness. Some nice pear fruit too. A well balanced and crafted CA chard.

A lighter bodied Champagne with lower acidity and more ripness and fruit than most.
