Remember when the pradikat on a German wine label meant something? Remember when a glass of spatlese was refreshing and food friendly, instead of a dessert wine with plans for world domination? Well this wine takes me back to those long, lost days of yesteryear, when a crisp glassfull of spatlese meant fresh fruit and zingy acids, balance and refreshment. Wonderful with our Indian spice pork chops, this isn't so much developing with age as holding on to its youth like a middle-aged surfer. It's fun, but you can see the wrinkles. Enjoyable company, but get it now beofer it shrivels up into nothingness.
