Tonight's bottle · Cool, composed, precisely held white
Domaine Weinbach Riesling
🇫🇷Alsace, France · Riesling
Petrol and white flowers, a thread of lemon pith, something immaculately controlled. Alsatian Riesling at its most composed — the wine equivalent of choosing every word. Best drunk in formal silence or very good company.

- Match № 01 · Quiet dignity, fading light, English restraintThe Remains of the Dayby Kazuo IshiguroWhy this works
Cool, composed, and precisely held — petrol, white flowers, a thread of restraint. The wine equivalent of Stevens choosing his words.
- Match № 02 · North Atlantic gale, woodsmokeThe Shipping Newsby Annie ProulxWhy this works
Mineral precision and salt-edged citrus — structured and a little wind-scoured, like Proulx's prose.
