  VdP Weinversteigerung 2010 (Pre-sale tasting) (Kloster Eberbach): Totally effortless, a magisterial wine. Nothing can touch it. Incredible sweetness and soaring acidity cancel each other out into virtual weightlessness. This wine leaves the drinker speechless.

  VDP Rheingau Riesling Review 2009 (German House, London, U.K.): Wilhelm Weil himself poured me this super-powered-dirty-gold coloured exclamation mark, which has strings of the wine hanging on to the glass after a swirl. Take a bunch of tropical fruits, marinate them in petrol and finish off with some cinammon. Something like that. Silky texture with sparks of honey comb, super substantial and controlled "heat", insanely lasting until the evening. Regrettably I did have to brush my teeth at some stage.
  Overall: Someone melted down a medicine cabinet from a different planet and put it in this bottle. So supernatural that it should be prohibited. This one has "Must have died and gone to heaven" written all over it. If you get your hands on this one (they will be auctioned off 2010 at the centennial of VDP), make sure you live to see this one opened.
