To Serve Riesling

As a rule of thumb, the sweeter the wine, the higher the serving temperature. Also dessert-style Rieslings that have been concentrated through the effect of Botrytis are often not improved by being overly chilled because cold temperatures tighten-up volatile aromas. Standard refrigerators are usually set around 38°F (3°C) – keep that in mind for the best serving temperatures:

Dry Riesling	43-46°F	(6-8°C)
Sweet Riesling	45-50°F	(7-10°C)
Ice Wines	46-48°F	(8-9°C)
Botrytized Riesling	52-54°F	(11-12°C)
Sparkling Riesling	45°F	(7°C)
