Monday Betsy made a "Morrocan Chicken Pot Pie" (from I think latest Bon Appetit). Kind of a cross between a CPP and a b'stilla. Cumin, cinnamon, plus spice from the green olives she used. Really a lovely dish. I was thinking crisp white, maybe Fiano or something, but came up from cellar with the 2006 Hexamer "Quartzit" Meddersheimer Rheingrafenberg Riesling QbA (Nahe). A hint of spritz. Lime blossoms and crushed rocks on the nose. Citrus and stone fruit on the palate, plenty of sugar but well balanced by the high acidity. Most acidic 2006 I've tasted, and it handles it well. Very good. The sweetness balances the spices, the acidity livens ip everything, good match. Didn't have wine with dinner tonight. but just got back from taking a college group to city, discovered Quartzit is even better on day 2 (well, technically day 3) with Sun Chips™. B++
Grade disclaimer: I'm a very easy grader, basically A is an excellent wine, B a good wine, C mediocre. Anything below C means I wouldn't drink at a party where it was only choice. Furthermore, I offer no promises of objectivity, accuracy, and certainly not of consistency
