Riesling ranges from bone dry to intensely sweet, and the label doesn't always make it obvious. Lime, green apple and stone, often with a floral note and a distinctive petrol character as it ages. German vineyards sit at the northern limit of ripening, planted on steep slate slopes that catch every hour of available sun. Raimund Prum 'Essence' Medium-Dry is the name on the bottle. Cold, in a tall glass. Superb with spicy food, pork, and anything sweet-and-sour.
