Weingut Clemens Busch Vom Grauen Schiefer Riesling 2009

Bought in Munich, Germany while traveling on business. We had it with some pad thai and it paired perfectly. This wine is silky smooth and well balanced. I often find Riesling to be on the sour side but this wine went down very easily. Vom grauen schiefer translates into "of the grey slate" which speaks to the terroir where this wine is produced in the Mosel wine region.

A sweet wine with hints of honey and pear. Very flavourful with sour notes at the end. Julia appreciated the lack of oak. I noticed that the wine had some bubbles, possibly an indication of the presence of carbon dioxide left over from fermentation, according to Rodney Strong Vineyards. Would go well with Asian food.

Score: 84
