Meyer-Fonne Réserve Riesling

The buttery, caramel-y notes of Alpine cheeses make them insanely snackable, showcasing aromas from savory baked onion to exotic pineapple. They need a wine that's palate cleansing, fruity, and even with a teeny smooch of residual sugar to balance those nutty notes and palate-coating butter fat. Meyer-Fonné make delicious wines no matter what the vintage, and they drink even better with a touch of age. I know, I know, so many people say "but all Rieslings are sweet!" They're not! The next time you have a Coke or Pepsi with your meal, I want you to think about how much sugar is in that soda - it's more than double what you'll find in most Rieslings. So next time, grab a Riesling, cut the sugar, and enjoy some fermented grape juice!
