Lindemans Bin 75 Reisling
Saturday dinner at Urban Thai Bistro in Yaletown. We debated getting a bottle, but decided to get glasses of the Lindemans Bin 75 Riesling. The wine came. It smelled like rain. It tasted like spring rain, too, with a hint of grapefruit. Very soft, very fresh, absolutely no body whatsoever. It was missing the sparkle that Rieslings usually have. It wasn’t a bad wine, but we were disappointed, and glad that we didn’t order a bottle.
On the other hand, the vegetarian lettus wraps with mango and cashews were amazing.
Verdict: O.K.
