Wine Tasting:
2004 Hans von Wilhelm Riesling

Winery: Hans von Wilhelm
Brand/Type: Spätlese Riesling
Vintage: 2004
Country: Germany
Region: Mosel - Saar - Rüwer (Piesporter Michelsberg)
Alcohol content: 8.5%
Closure: Natural Cork
Appearance: Pale dishwater blonde
Aroma/Bouquet: Green Apple

Very nice, bold and fruity, sweet-tart flavors of green apple. Not the most complex but far from simple. This is a very affordable German import that is typical of most Spätlese Rieslings. Enjoy it with a meal (goes well with Thanksgiving turkey) or as an apertif.

    Where can I purchase this wine locally or have it shipped to me? I live in the Cleveland, Ohio area.

    Thanks for any help you may provide,

    Carl

    Carl, I found this at the Andersons in Toledo. The Andersons have stores in Toledo, Lima and Columbus. I can’t say where else you could locate this other than to suggest checking with your local retailer or searching online. Good luck!
