Unicorn. Gelber Muskateller BA. Nose of grapefruit and kumquats. Fresh, ripe, exotic and bitter mid, orange peel finish. 11% alcohol keeps it light on the palate.

Hold or drink.
Big, black fruits, very good balance. Wish I had more to drink over next 5-10 years.

Delicious now. Elegant with dark fruits and power in reserve. Toss away any preconceptions about the 2006 vintage.

Much sweeter than I had imagined. Better after several days, so I will be holding these for a while.

Corked. Medium deep yellow. Not sure what it says, but 7/8 of bottle was still consumed, despite its flaws.

This was a treasure opened by Paul Schandl of Weingut Peter Schandl during a visit. Ruländer is also known as Pinot Gris. Vibrant acidity, extreme depth of character. Extraordinary. According to another site:

Paramètres analytiques :

Sucres résiduels : 66 g/L

5/5. A weird wine that takes like a sour Belgian beer. (And I mean that in the nicest possible way). Orange peel, coriander, worcestershire. Frank is Flemish, so I guess it all makes sense. I estimate the ABV to more than the stated 13% but the palate is very well balanced.
