Okay, I just had another really good Riesling though not everyone here will like it - it's a little sweet and it has a screw cap.

It's the Loosen Riesling Dr. L 2004, for which I paid $9.29. It's only classified as qualitatswein, but you wouldn't know that from drinking it. Loosen is a top Mosel producer, and they do a really good job with this one. Best wine I've had for under $10 in a while. Here are my notes:

White straw. Pears, honey aroma. Intense pear, with classic riesling "slate". Long pear, cloves finish. Fruity, intense, delicious wine, I'd guess the sweetness is Kabinett+. Alcohol is only 8.5%. This is a real bargain.
