Yeah...I said it...94!!!...and that is a conservative score. Arguably the best value I have encountered...ever. Diesel, richness, candied tropical fruits, citrus, herbs, steel, honey, and everything else one could hope for in a $50 Rheingau Riesling...my double-blind guess. Stunning!

Chilled about 20 minutes before serving. Initial nose of petrol, tropical fruit, and pencil eraser. On the palate it has sweet stone fruit, petrol, a certain creamy quality, and more of that pencil eraser. It was interesting and fun to taste but not a wine that I necessarily think is beyond above average.

Even less acidity than last time. Should be consumed before the end of the year.

More syrupy than last time, and seemingly less complex. Still, not overly sweet, and a great complement to spicy dishes. Serve slightly chilled. 86+
