Half bottle. Orange/amber color. Fragrant with some baked caramel. Moderately sweet with a pronounced citrus lift. Excellent acidity and amazing delicacy for a Rheingau TBA. Just a hint of slight bitterness intrudes on a gentle, long finish. All in all, pretty amazing for a 66 year old dessert wine from a half bottle. As usual, hats off to Dade for opening this rare treasure from his personal collection.

1953 Schloss Johannisberg Fürst Von Metternich Riesling Trockenbeerenauslese. I'm sorry this is not posted / listed correctly, but I do not know nearly enough about these old riesling to add it.

World's Greatest, Hong Kong - Night II (Garden Suite, Peninsula Hotel): Similar to the Edelbeerenauslese but far darker and with molasses. Grainy and muddy. The palate is way better than the nose on this and is sweet and thick. Not perfect.
