The Riesling grape variety expresses its terroir like few others, and so its style can vary greatly from one vineyard to the next. In general, one can differentiate between ripe fruity Riesling and a tighter mineral profile. Ideally, a fine dry Riesling will offer a balance of the two, offering a delicate yet seductive character ideal for raw or cooked shellfish as well as a variety of other seafood dishes typical of Japanese cuisine. In fact, its versatility makes it a great bottle to open for mixed sushi platters with best pairings: mixed sushi, hotate sashimi, grilled clams, teriyaki sauce on fish and white meat.
