Theise/Skurnik DI tasting. Pungent, tropical fruit accented with rich honeyed elements and high toned horseradish-like notes. Incredible sweetness, intensity and length. Excellent.

(Hexamer Sobernheimer Marbach Riesling Eiswein) ($102.00) First offering. There are usually a few teensy tanks of sweet wine still gurgling away when I visit, and a year later they’re already sold in most cases. Which is a pity, because Harald Hexamer is a wizard at this kind of wine. He has The Touch. He understands the rarest thing of all; that sweet wines get better to the extent they are sleeker and more pure, not merely richer and more intense. You want a cool eerie line stretching to infinity, not a blob of gunky richness.

Very refined and complex nose, very sweet but with good acidity. Only 6% alc., this should be even better with more age. Good stuff.
