thanks for the tasting note on this one. disappointed that the butterfly was so ... disappointing. i had hopes it would be a good qpr/house riesling.

In context of company of wines it was tasted in, it wasn't that disappointing and would work well as a qpr. I have a hard time justifying it though when I can pick up Hexamer M.R. Kab for $9.99.

I thought the 2004 Butterfly was nice - the 2005 is out already in Hawaii? Man, you guys go through your Rieslings very quickly!

I've seen the full range of Rudi Weist imports (less Prum) avaiable on store shelves already during my trips to the west coast.
