Can I just say TGIF!? What a week.
I mentioned that I would be taking a trip for work. Well, that was interesting! In a nutshell, I had a 24-hour business trip in which my coworkers and I never made it to our D.C. destination, never had our meetings, and never had our bags...and still don't. Hah! I'll just say that I am thankful I was traveling with folks I really like and that there was a Target near our hotel we were put up in for the night. With both of those things, plus a good attitude, I survived (and it could always be worse!). Although I feel like I didn't accomplish much of anything in the last day!
Having said the above, I'm excited about Wine Friday. I may or may not have gone straight for the vino upon arriving back home from all of that mess!
The wine I enjoyed last night, to ease my travel woes, was this delicious Riesling!
Clean Slate Riesling
Year: 2009
Origin: Mosel, Germany
Average price: $10
Wine Notes from wine.com: Ripe peach flavors balance lively acidity, hints of lime and characteristic minerality. Clean Slate Riesling pairs well with Asian dishes, spicy foods, sushi, fish, poultry and pork. Perfect for summer.
My review: WOW. This was fantastic. It was fresh, sweet, but not too strong, crisp and just delicious! After searching online a bit, it appears this one has won many awards, and is pretty cheap to boot! Not to mention that the bottle is really beautiful, too.
