She said: No doubt about it this dinner presents problems with the wine choice, especially in view of the cabbage. Ray picked a Riesling in spite of the fact that he knows they are low on my list of favorites, but I have to to admit I was won over by his choice. The green apple flavor and smooth medium body together with the relative dryness was good with the dinner and even better just sipping. It’s to expensive to be a bargain wine, but it is delicious and I would recommend buying it again.
