My name is Lesley and I’m an experienced home cook with a passion for food, wine and baking, and who isn’t afraid to take chances on making up random recipes on the fly. I’m here to help inspire you and give you the confidence to try new things, or put some spark into your old favourites. Most episodes I'll have a guest where we talk about cooking, baking, wine, and anything else food-related that strikes our fancy. Sometimes I'll go solo and share something I've been cooking up and share my no-recipe-recipe with you. Thanks for tuning in and... Let's get cooking!

S4.E5 - Riesling with Alexander

In this episode I chat with my cousin, Alexander, who is a product consultant at the LCBO in Toronto. He LOVES Riesling, so he was the perfect person to have on to talk about all things Riesling. In the previous episode, I gave you my thoughts on the Pierre Sparr Riesling from Alsace that was this month's Wine Club selection. While Alexander and I talk about Riesling as it's made in Canada, France (Alsace) and Germany, we are tasting the 2017 Riesling from Stanners Vineyard in Prince Edward County. I bought this at my local farmers' market a few weeks ago, and since I'd just baked a Peach Pie yesterday, I figured this was a good time to open this bottle and share it with Alexander.

Here are the wines we talked about in this episode:

Wegeler Riesling Trocken 2020, Rheingau, Germany, $21.95, 12g/L of sugar

Hidden Bench Estate Riesling 2019, Niagara, Ontario, $24.95, 21g/L of sugar

Stanners Vineyard Riesling 2017, Prince Edward County, ON (I don't see this wine on their web site - I think it was $29)
