This hints at mint or basil, yet also displays plenty of mineral accents on a racy, fine structure. Lovely cut and focus keep everything reined in on the finish. Peach and cream notes mingle on the aftertaste. Drink now through 2010. 180 cases made, 50 cases imported.??–BS??Region: Germany / Rheingau Select to Add

This shows the Ress touch, with its freshness and lightness. But the fruit flavors are attractively forward. There are flavors of red currants and white peaches. The texture is crisp, with layers of acidity and with the sweetness of fresh apricots. The aftertaste is fresh and refreshing, despite the sweetness.——R.V.(1/1/2004)—— 89

Loads of citrus mark this elegant, backward '99 auslese, which needs a year or two to integrate the grapefruit, lime, peach and stone notes with the rich texture and rigid framework. Great finish. Best from 2002 through 2010.??–BS??Region: Germany / Rheingau Select to Add
