Ruppertsbergen Riesling (2006)

Wine tasting 2

This was definitely the surprise of the evening and not everyone guessed correctly what it was. A really fantastic Riesling from Germany. It scored very highly, and is on my list to buy for a special occasion. I've always enjoyed fancy dark chocolate and Riesling together on a quite evening.
