Notes
-----
This is probably a pretty decent wine, but it's not a type
that I'm particularly fond of, and I don't have a lot to
compare it to. It's a bit sweet, as a spatlese should be,
but it has a lot of acidity. I find that the citrusy acids
overpower the sweetness, but if that's what you want in a
white wine, this one's got it. The color is a nice pale
yellow, and the scent is very light, just a hint of citrus.
I like that it's from Worms. Worms has a really great
Romanesque cathedral, which was host to the famous
(infamous?) Diet of Worms.

Production Notes
----------------
I got this in a tiny quarter-bottle (187 ml) with a
screwtop, just to try it out. It's a good size for a trial.
