Jamie Goode: wine anorak blog 19th October 2008

‘As I've said before on this blog, if you are in the wine trade you have no choice about which your favourite white grape is. It *just* has to be Riesling. Well, with wines like this, it's not difficult. It's beautifully balanced and delicious. The only problem? It should really be a pound or two cheaper, I think.

Much as I admire Jamie on this occasion he is wrong. Riesling is certainly not my favourite grape variety – Chenin Blanc, the world’s most versatile grape, is., although Riesling is an honourable runner-up.
