About Me

Hi! I'm Christina, and I am a recent graduate from Virginia Tech! I'm in Northern VA now pursuing a degree in Marriage and Family Therapy. I'd like to continue what I learned from the Geography of Wine class I took in Spring of 2012, so I'll be posting about different wines and wine events. I would be very grateful for suggestions, and I'm open to expanding my posts to beer and liquor as well!

Tasting - Weinkeller Erbach Flonheimer Adelberg Silvaner


Name: Weinkeller Erbach Flonheimer Adelberg Silvaner
Variety: Silvaner
Region: Rheinhessen
Country: Germany
Year: 2010
Price: $9.95
Shop Review: The fruity, mouthwatering wine has a nice acidity-sugar balance and comes from the so called “Rhenhessen-Switzerland,” the heartland of Rheinhessen.  It has a floral bouquet and smells like yellow fruit, lemon-grass and green tea.
My Review: Lemon-grass was the dominant scent in the bouquet.  The initial taste of this wine was lemony with hints of other citrus fruits and had a sour finish.  It had a good balance.  It would be lovely on a hot summer’s day!

I had this wine alone without any food.
