The perfect summer wine

Now that summer in NY is actually here, Riesling is the perfect wine for it - crisp, fruity, complex, and great with or without food. I recommend Hermann J. Wiemer's Dry Riesling, as does Eric Asimov of the NY Times:

For those who like a sweeter style, Wiemer's Semi-dry Riesling and Gewurtraminer are also favorites. All 3 of these wines in the 2007 vintage are under $20! You can find Wiemer wines at Astor Wines in Manhattan.

Cheers to the weekend!
