Wikipedia: Riesling
Riesling is a white grape variety which originated in the Rhine region. Riesling is an aromatic grape variety displaying flowery, almost perfumed, aromas as well as high acidity.

26. “Everything happens for a riesling, right?” — Unknown

24 August 2018, Morning Edition (NPR), “Portland Artist Mike Schneider Makes His Own Boyfriend”:
NOEL KING: Good morning. I’m Noel King. A few months ago, Mike Schneider, an artist in Portland, Ore., took maybe not the art world but at least Instagram by storm. Sick of bad relationships, he made a boyfriend out of empty wine boxes. He called the box-boyfriend Franz and posted pictures of them shopping and making dinner. Now, he says, he and his wine boxes are engaged. As Schneider put it, everything happens for a riesling.
