Happy Riesling Birthday to Me

Selection of Finger Lakes Riesling in the Gioquindo Household 

In case you didn't know, this week is Riesling Week, sponsored by the Finger Lakes Wine Alliance and Finger Lakes Wine Country. There have been many featured events all week long all over New York as 30  Finger Lakes wineries release their 2010 Rieslings.

Tonight in celebration of my Birthday from 6pm - 10pm is the worlds largest Riesling tasting as we celebrate the 2010 vintage.  Actually, it's a celebration of Finger Lakes Riesling, and it happens to be my birthday.  So grab a bottle of Finger Lakes Riesling, plan a nice meal paired with Riesling, and invite your family and/or friends over to enjoy it with you.  If you are on twitter use the hashtag #FLXwine and tweet about your tasting and your pairing.  I will be drinking one of the above bottles.

I leave you with this wonderful video to give you a background on the Finger Lakes Wine Country and what it has to offer and it's Riesling.
