Amazingly fresh on the palate for this relatively simple Late Harvest. This was rated a mere 81 points 20 years ago by WS. The passage of time has been kind to this one.

Drinking very nicely, revealing a lot of light and crisp youth - after 22 years! The 1990 Johannisberg riesling reveals two things worth noticing: the first is that a light body can be combined with a deep pure nose and an elegant palate. The second is that a 22 year old wine can be perceived as youthful. Served to Cannelés with crème Anglaise and red currant. (score is 90-91)
