Episode 141: Old 502 Winery Reese Ling

Summary: Ten Reasons why we reviewed this wine: 1. Joe’s friend, Dan, got married in Kentucky and Joe picked this wine up for us--a toast to Dan! 2. May is Riesling month, so we have to have at least one 3. It is Pike Festival Weekend--a toast to funnel cake! 4. Bryan and Kate are gearing up for the annual Whiskey Rebellion--whiskey+Kentucky+wine geeks=wine from Kentucky. 5. Jen2 is here--a toast to Jen! 6. We are hanging out the historic Bradford House--a toast to David Bradford! 7. Alexander Hamilton was never president--a toast to Aaron Burr (just kidding)! 8. Bryan is reading by candlelight 9. The grapes in this wine are ”curb stomped” 10. We were thirsty! Flavors of honey, granny smith apple with crisp acidity. Very “spritely” Scores: Bryan 84 “a little too much acid for me” Kate 87 “its not too sweet” Jen 88 “I like the spritely-ness” Chris 84 “I think these are west coast grapes” Jen2 94 “I’m a red drinker, but I really like this--and I’m not too drunk to form opinions”
