Last week the Grapevine was dedicated to Riesling. Wear a spring dress and drink up. Well, I knew I wasn't going to like this one. It could be ok on a hot summer's day with lunch- very cold- and one glass. But after a lot of tastes it was beginning to taste more and more like white grape juice. That said, I think if I met someone and they said, "Oh I like wine- like Riesling" I would probably be a snob in my heart and think- That's not wine. Grow up.

To somehow make up for that last statement, I'll say beforehand my lovely friends made a delicious spring infused dinner of strawberry salad and pesto, fresh zuke (from the garden) and turkey sandwiches for us all...
