Comments on: What riesling wine comes in a short bottle? http://tncwines.com/what-riesling-wine-comes-in-a-short-bottle Sat, 20 Feb 2010 14:28:57 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9 hourly 1 By: Dave C http://tncwines.com/what-riesling-wine-comes-in-a-short-bottle/comment-page-1#comment-7153 Dave C Fri, 18 Dec 2009 06:51:58 +0000 http://tncwines.com/what-riesling-wine-comes-in-a-short-bottle#comment-7153 I'll follow on with what Chef Paul had to say. The only half-bottles of Rieslings that I've seen are either Eisweins or the higher end sweetnesses (beerenausleses or trockenbeerenausleses). Was the win that you had very sweet (or even very, very sweet)? If so, there's a good chance that you had one of these. However, getting back to the "M." There is a winery called Mosella and there is a large "M" on the label. Could this be the one? http://mosellawine.com/ If so, then maybe they make a half-bottle that I am unfamiliar with. Good luck! Rieslings are terrific wines. I’ll follow on with what Chef Paul had to say.

Usually the more expensive reislings are available in half bottles. The green bottles are from the Mosel region and the brown bottles are from the Rhine valley. As the price goes up the wine gets sweeter. Kabinet is dry but fruity, Spatlese are a little sweeter and very fruity, Auslese is sweet, beerenauslese is sweeter, and trokenbeerenauslese is the sweetest and like nectar. It would not be unusual to pay $250 for a half bottle of a BA or TBA. Hope this helped. If you were at a wine tasting there’s a good chance you tasted a german reisling in a half bottle.

It's not Reisling. You know, the bottle could have been simply a single serving bottle, which there are too many to mention... If you could, get on the Disney website and find a contact. Call their Cruise Line office and I'm sure someone could help. If you can't find what you're looking for, here are some great Reislings: Badger Mountain Beringer Appelation Collection Good luck!

Its a white wine I think. I thought it was a riesling, but its not. Was it a short blue bottle? If so then this may be it. I love this stuff. You can get it from Sam's Club for sure. I hope this helps. Moscato D’Asti? Its a white wine I think. I thought it was a riesling, but its not. Was it a short blue bottle? If so then this may be it. I love this stuff.
