Dry Riesling ($20) – This came up a bit short to me, especially compared to the German and Alsatian Rieslings we are more familiar with. It is pretty similar to Alsatian Riesling I think, but I prefer this bottle for 3 dollars less. Compared to the couple of Rieslings we had on this trip, however, this was probably the best.

I was at Trefethen last March, with my girlfriend, who has literally never ordered wine at a restaurant that was not a Reisling. Nor Cal is definitely not Reisling territory. We must have visited 15 wineries without seeing one, until someone directed us to Trefethen. It wasn't bad, but I've had much better from So Cal. Even Firestone of all places.
