Weingut Jakob Schneider Riesling Kabinett
$15.49 (LITRE BOTTLE)
Germany, Aisle 7B
Here lies one of the best value medium dry German Riesling I can offer. This wine is an even balance of citrus fruits, dry acid and low sugar levels. Remember not all Riesling is sweet the term Kabinett shows that. With a lively spritz of lime zest and stony minerals this wine is a patio pleaser for sure. Jakob Schnieder Riesling would pair perfectly with spicy Asian cuisine, sushi and curry dishes. Whether you like wine with a little sweetness or want to try something new and refreshing this bottle goes a long, long way with it’s quaffable charm.
SCORE: 3++
Cheers!

Selbach DRY Riesling
$11.99, Germany-Aisle 7B
Selbach is definitely a name in German wine that can be trusted. Especially if on a budget and like diversity in Riesling. This wine is as dry as English humor giving off textures of stone and slate with light subtle kiwi, and peach flavors over lapped by minerals.
SCORE: 3++
