Gentlemen,
Which wine other than the top quality Rieslings from MSR has the following traits?
1) Crammed with fruity aromas of ripe apricots, peach, honey, grapefruit, minerals etc., (dubbed as Fruit Bombs by connoisseurs) 2) light and refreshing with less than 11% alc. to go with hot explosive Asian cuisines and sweltering summer, 3) unwooded for the true character of the berries (no foreign aromas like butter, vanilla, toasted bread etc inherited from various types of wooden barrels), 4) enough acidity to cut through fatty or oily food, 5) that can be cellared for 10 years and beyond and still drinks deliciously refreshing, 6) ability to reflect terroir and true to its soil, 7) well-balanced between acidity and natural sweetness (approx. 1.5% ~ 2% residual sugar), 8) 100 % hand harvested grapes, 9) can be made into a wonderful dessert wine that fetches more than US$1000 a bottle in annual wine competitions the World over, 10) received high scores from reputable wine authorities like Wine Spectators, Robert Parkers, Jancis Robinson, Hugh Johnson and more, 11) once regarded as a white wine on par with or not better than the best from Bordeaux. 12) the favourite wine of Queen Victoria.Like it or not, the invincible, humble, mistreated, utterly misunderstood even hated due to trends, Riesling is regaining its long lost throne as one of the finest white wine on the planet.
