Shane’s Notes

We saw the play Argonautika on Saturday with my parents at the Berkeley Repertory Theater. Once again, the Rep staged an excellent production and we thoroughly enjoyed the play. Jen and I arrived home and scoured the wine fridge for a half bottle to enjoy before going to bed. Alas, we couldn’t find any half bottles, so we opted for this low alcohol (7.5%) Riesling. It was an excellent choice and as is frequently the case with good German Rieslings, it was hard not to slurp it down. The palate was simple but flavorful showing honeyed apricot. The finish was medium length and minerally.
