Wente Riesling 2002

Price: $9/bottle retail - $5/glass restaurant
Type: Riesling
Cork: unknown
Rating: 7

I tried this wine at Bristol Bar and Grille tonight. It was well paired with the Green Chilli Won-Tons appetizer.

I know they're not to everyone's taste, but I enjoy Rieslings. Their sweetness is refreshing with appetizers and light meals.

This Riesling had a very nice mouthfeel, but a pretty average flavor. The sweet start was followed by a slightly bitter aftertaste. All in all, I'd call it a pleasant flavor, good enough for restaurants with limited selections, but not a wine I'd actively seek out.
