WTN: Romance

1998 J.u.H.A. Strub Niersteiner Paterberg Riesling Spatlese***
Corked. Smelled like a flooded basement. I've had so many good to great bottles of this wine that it was very, very disappointing.

Yes, but the ritual, the romance, makes up for the disappointment.

Actually the extra opening in the cellar makes up for a lot of the disappointment.
