We had forgotten that Tuesday was Mardi Gras till it was too late, but we decided to celebrate a day late with some NO-influenced food. Betsy had all day rehearsals, I said I'd do dinner, and found a simple seafood etouffee recipe. It had a lot of tomatoes, and reminded me of jambalaya more than etouffee, I added some andouille and called it "dinner", as it was a bit of a hybrid. Wine was the 2002 J.J. Christoffel Ürziger Würzgarten Riesling Kabinett (this is from the PC blowout, and has a natural cork- my white-market bottle of the same had synthetic I believe). Nice light to medium bodied Riesling, main focus on the palate is peach fruit, with little notes of lime and strawberry. Finish isn't especially long, but a nice slatey edge. Good acidity and light sweetness, balances well with the cayenne in the etoulaya- I mean jambafee- I mean dinner. B/B+, solid A for QPR at the $7.99 price.
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.
