Well, of course I had the schedule a little wrong. Tuesday we were still in Vienna. Had a massive lunch where I ate some pork and duck (ok, just a bite or two.) We took it easy last night, and then this morning we were up early to get the car.
Morning appointment at my favorite wine maker, Knoll. Maybe Frank remembers from GSI. We got the tour and then tasted 4 2002 from the barell and then a bunch of 2001's in the celler with Emerich Jr. After that we got a quick lunch and then another tasting with Rudi Pichler.
After that I was basically out of gas, but the Wheel keeps turning, and all that, so now after checking into the hotel we're headed back to Knoll for dinner. More in the morning if I make it.
Was that the Jesus wine or the other one? Make sure you hug a little of the Black Forest for me.
dont forget to spit it out for those am tastings
Oh, you're supposed to spit it out? Bill, you should have told me that before I left.
Frank, yes. Jesus wine. Although we learned the label is St. Urben (sp?) the patron saint of wine making. In any case, the good stuff.
