I like this one. The two images come together nicely, creating a cohesive statement. Acidity and Sweetness. But is it really that flashy a wine?
I think the “flashiness” is reflected in the two images, which not only as you have said reflect the acidity and sweetness, but the flashiness (left) and bizarre calmness (right). More importantly, these pictures are of the Brazilian Carnival, which factored into much of the conversation the evening we drank this wine. That’s the thing about wine: one’s impression of it is never determined exclusively by what is in the bottle!
Cheers,

It’s really a great review. Which has driven me to drink Riesling all night.
this got an 89 from Fine Wine Review. Can you please repost at The 89 Project?
