Thanks Ken! Yes, a nutty flavour on the plate would have complimented the wine well too. Cheers!

Nice recipe. I like hazelnut oil (or olive oil, depending on the accompanying dish) on the lightly boiled fresh green beans.

Karnail Singh Sidhu was my classmate at Ludhiana. He was very positive in life during his study time. I always seen a bright light on his face. I hope he will rise further.

Thank you for your comment and shared love of German Riesling! It is great to have Donnoff wines in Canada. Though they are still very hard to find in Ontario. They are only available online from the Vintages Exclusive. I have found his wines more easily available in Vancouver, BC at fine wine merchants like Marquis Wine Cellars.

Totally agree about Riesling. Also concur that although I/you love it we don’t actually drink it as often as we should!! Lovely to see the Donnhoff wines in Canada. I have fond memories of visits to the Nahe valley and the amazing viticultural area.

Thanks for your comment Gareth! I look forward to reading your Viognier reviews. Hopefully you can taste some Canadian Viognier soon!

I’ve just started a blog about Viognier so I was pleased to read this post . I had no idea Canada produced a range of Viognier wine(I live in London, UK) but it makes sense climate wise.
I prefer the older vintages mostly but depends on the food. I just tasted and bought a St Cosme Viognier/Rousanne 50/50 blend from Cote Du Rhone – an absolute delight that I will review soon.
Cheers
Gareth

Great post Allison! If only the rest of the wine world thought like us sommeliers, huh? Riesling is the be all and end all in my books, I just wish everyone else would embrace it too! I was drooling when I read your tasting note tweet about the Beernauslese…
