Looks like an interesting bottle Lar, where did you pick it up?
Hi Will,
bought it in Vaughan Johnson’s, Temple Bar for €17.95
Lar
Lar,
€18 for an 11 year old riesling sounds like good value to me! I may have to pop into Vaughan Johnsons the next time I’m walking through temple bar. Thanks for the tip.
Cheers,
Will
I’ll have try this, thanks! I had been drinking Reisling pretty regularly, up until I picked up a French Viognier, and that’s a whole other love affair :) Love wines with buckets going on in them. *yum*
