Beautiful drive with the top down today.

Long day though - the drive was the easy part. So many people to see, so many glasses of wine to drink, so little time.

OMG, that roadster is gorgeous!
Austrian grapes are maligned as making for sweet wines. People are so wrong. At its best they certainly are not always an aperitif, but drink with the best dinner wines in the world. You are so fortunate to be tasting them the masters of their craft!

You are right - many people has a misconception and the Gr?ner Veltliner is a wine that goes with almost any dish, not to mention that there are so many types of Gr?ner Veltliner available.

Please jot down a few names (with years) of bottles that I should keep an eye out for here in NYC.
Thanks, Jonathan,
