Thinking Of Anton Bauer And His Excellent Austrian Wines These Past Two Weeks / 8-9/09






I met a young lady that I am not at all sure that I connected with or got on well ( it could have been the language barrier I suppose and misunderstanding each other or simply that we did not click and appreciate one another ) with on two separate occasions and yet she got me to thinking of Anton ( Toni ) Bauer and the times he came to the store as well as those marvelous times that I saw him in Austria in Vienna as well as his own vineyard and later here at dinner in Tyson's Corner.

I have really enjoyed representing his wines in our store at Cleveland Park Wines & Spirits ( 3423 Connecticut Avenue N.W. Washington D.C. 20008 sales@clevelandparkwine.com www.clevelandparkwine.com Tel: 202-363-4265 ).

I hope that you enjoy reading these six poems that I wrote this morning inspired by Toni and his wonderful and refreshing, bright, focused, fresh and balanced wines that are also very reasonably priced.

This evening from 5-8 Pm we tasted four of Toni's wines with our customers ( and most all of them sporting new and updated labels ) : the 2008 Gmork Gruner Veltliner, the 2008 Pinot Gris, the 200^ ( or was it 2007? ) dry Riesling and the three-grape blend of dry 2008 rose ( including Zweigelt and Merlot and one other grape that I cannot recall now ). It was quite the successful tasting and we sold many bottles of all four of these refreshing wines.

Enjoy these poems now :
