To Serve Riesling

As a rule of thumb, the sweeter the wine, the higher the serving temperature. However, 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)
