What our wine shop said
:  "Once you go Riesling you'll never go back.  It has a very low alcohol level, but the flavor is better--goes with anything.  I might lean more towards a Chardonnay with the meal you're making, but Riesling is always going to come through for you."
What we think: Wow.  Though dry, it has a general aura of sweetness, making it taste much like good Champagne without the carbonation.  We both consider this among the best white wines we've ever had. 
We drank it with: Pan-Seared Salmon Pasta with Spinach Cream Sauce
