With Jean out of town, Andy and I are batching it. Tonight was a dinner
of grilled D'Artagnan wild boar sausages (that, ironically, Jean had
ordered before departing to assist her niece with childbirth). I'm
loathe to open any wine too good in Jean's absence, so I went down to
the cellar and brought up:
2001 Josef Leitz "Einz Zwei Dry" Riesling QbA
I've had previous vintages of this wine and liked them, but on this
night this wine just isn't doing it for me. A bit too dilute and bland,
a bit lacking in acid, the wine doesn't have the zip and nerve that I
want from Riesling. As a result, it comes across as softly sweet, not
again what I look for in this bottling. It serves passably well with
the (very delicious) sausage, but it's not something I'd buy again.

Was confused till I re-looked at subject line, 2011 makes more sense. Thanks for note, it's something I might have bought, now I won't!

I've got a lot left in the fridge, so I'll see if some time improves my
impression of it.

OK, on day 2 the expected acids are there (hoorah!) but it is still
quite shy in the fruit department. I also served it colder tonight,
which may explain the difference in character.
