Isolation begins with riesling

Just bottled the '19 pink, and the '19 Heart Of Gold. Don't think any previous vintage of either has been quite as "on."

It's gonna be some party when they let us all out!

Last night I opened the 2018 NH Spätlese feinherb #3 and it was so good. Somehow these Falkenstein wines exceed my expectations (almost) every single time. I should probably become a smarter person and start revising my expectations upwards. I often think of them as basic wines (perhaps influenced by price), but the sexyfun factor is high. Yes a bit riper and thicker due to the vintage, but still with a racy fresh Saar tint. Such a good match with soft-shelled crab, sauteed maitake and spinach, and barley. The wine disappeared before my eyes.

And probably offered more sexyfun than the grander 2012 Hirtzberger Hochrain Riesling Smaragd that I drank recently. It was my last bottle and not showing the lively glories of 1 or 2 years ago. But far from a bad way to spend a meal.
