Just when we thought we had Riesling all figured out, along came wood-matured, semi-sweet, single vineyard and super-textural versions to spice up this love-or-hate grape. There’s a new world of Riesling awaiting discovery, and it’s not what you expect.

The Riesling you never knew

Champagne buyer, beware. How can you be certain the bottle of fizz you’re about to shell out for isn’t out of date and stale? A recent move to print disgorgement dates on champagne bottles is too little, too late.
