Tasting- Peter Mertes Riesling Platinum

Week 10


Name: Peter Mertes Riesling Platinum
Variety: Riesling
Region: Reinhessen
Country: Germany
Year: 2013
Price: $8.95
Food? No

Description from the Vintage Cellar: "This quality Riesling is crisp, clean and easy drinking. Floral and fruit aromas suggest sweet melon and honey with enough acidity to ensure a beautifully balanced and versatile wine."


My Review: The "easy drinking" part of the description is very true. This wine was sweet and very easy to knock back. It wasn't very memorable though. It's not something I'm crazy about, nor would I get it again. Also it looks cheap, with it's silver label and blue glass bottle.
