Riesling and Food Pairings

I ran into my friend Dominick Purnomo and his fiancee at last weekend's Romancing the Grape wine festival at Proctor's in Schenectady. I asked him if he still believed that Reisling could be paired with most any dish, and he agreed.

If you are not convinced, visit dp and ask him for a pairing suggestion with your favorite dish, or try one of the recipes from DrinkRiesling.com below.

“Riesling is the grape of the 21st century”

Sommeliers have always loved Riesling for it’s piercing acidity. Winemakers love it for the wide variety of styles that it lends itself to. It can range from a dry wine with crisp apple and pear flavors to Sweet dessert wines with honeyed notes.

Because of it’s wide range of styles it is a very food friendly wine that goes great with everything from Sushi to Spicy foods. Riesling is the one grape I believe grown in NY that makes wine that rivals the best in the world.

Join us for THE NEW YORK RIESLING EXPEREIENCE at Applewood Winery May 2nd and 3rd 2009.
