Nothing Like a Spätlese
No matter what the weather - hot or cold - nothing goes do more easily than a Spätlese.

Since my husband spent some time in Berlin, way back in the iron curtain days, he is pretty well-versed in German wines and is always totting home a yummy something in a green or blue bottle.

One company he finds readily available in most liquor stores around here is Schmitt Sohne. If you make a trip to this company's web site, you'll see they have a very large range of wines available. One bottle we recently tried was a Piesporter Michelsberg Spätlese:

Piesporter Michelsberg Spätlese is produced from fully ripened grapes. This full bodied wine is lush and rich with flavours of ripe apricots and peaches. The mouth feel is well balanced and firm, giving intense and lingering finish. Excellent by itself or served with cheese, oriental food and richly flavoured meat and poultry.

Varietal : Riesling, Müller Thurgau
Alcohol: 7,5 - 8,0 % by vol.
Total acidity: 7,5 - 8,5 g/l
Residual sugar: 46 - 55 g/l
Sizes available: 750 ml
