Willi Brundlmayer uses the lyre canopy, open in the center like the ancient lyre of classical times, in part of the Heiligenstein vineyard. This, he believes, gives greater exposure, and therefore heat, for the grapes. Certainly this beautiful wine is richer than the other Brundlmayer Riesling from the same vineyard. But the intense concentration of flavor and beautiful currant and almond flavors are all there.——R.V.(8/1/2008)—— 95
