Saturday, August 10, 2019 - Very nice rendition of Kamptal Riesling. A little young and precocious, but still an enjoyable drink. Petulant nose of shaved ginger, green apple, and hyacinth. This was served a little warm as we were dining outside on a moderately warm summer day and opted not to request an ice bucket.

Dry and expressive on the palate with pronounced citrus tones, ginger, and some tart red apple. Just a suggestion of spritz that may have been more accentuated at a colder temperature. Paired surprisingly well with a milk fed veal dish in white wine with roasted peppers. But then again, I feel Riesling can adapt and flourish with a variety of dishes in addition to the standard Thai and Szechuan fare.

Good QPR here at sub $40.
