Zena and Renée take an Acid Trip through the wonderful world of Riesling! A Noble Grape dating back to 1435 in Germany. Naturally high acidity make it a perfect venue for terroir to shine. Ranging from bone dry to sweet - find your niche - rich, aromatics, lime and minerality, stone fruit and honey...and petrol? Yes, petrol. Pair it with your favorite seafood or spicy Indian! These are imminently quaffable, lower alcohol , food-loving, expressive and ageable wines! Pair it with your favorite version of "White Rabbit" (To no one's surprise, Renée's is by P!nk!) and take your own Acid Trip around the world from the Old Word to the New!
Also, Zena tries really hard to prove Renée wrong...but Renée was RIGHT on the Influence!!
