As eiswein. Riesling is something different. Eiswein ain't cheap - $50 for a half-bottle ($25/glass). I understand Inniskillin to be Canada's entry to the Eiswien market.

Riesling is a certain grape and not to be confused with Eiswein. Certainly no one at the register will confuse it. It is used as Esiwein in Canada, but it is not the same stuff, not by any stretch of the imagination, as any taste (or register receipt) will tell you.

I've had plenty of Riesling and view it as a poor sister to pinot grigiot, not the rich uncle.

If I can get some, I look forward to trying this year's batch.
