PR 1969 Extravaganza: Orange, mandarin, spice, kiwi fruit and pear on the nose. A wave of sweetness that envelops the palate but is kept moving but tangy acidity that lifts the orange fruit profile. Brilliant length and drive.

Pours a bit syrupy! Rich golden colour. The most amazing bouquet of orchard fruit with peaches and pineapples. Honey. Flowers. Trees bending down to touch a fresh running stream in the sunshine, boughs laden with ripe apples and the leaves just taking on the first tints of autumn. Palate rich, very rich, such fruit. Amazing acids holding it all in check. So evocative, beautiful and breathtaking. At the end, just that bit too sweet to keep drinking the half bottle, but that's a notch below perfection only.

Tooch Going Away Dinner (TDS): Big rich and sweet nose of pineapple and sugar-steeped white fruits. The palate is crazy rich and dense, though not at all syrupy. Despite that, I wished this had a touch more acid. Others at the table liked this more than me.

A farewell to Tooch (Chicago, IL): #21-09, 7% abv. From half-bottle. Syrupy and thick, much more so than I would expect from a Dönnhoff eiswein. Lots and lots of sweetness, with the decade of age showing a little bit of a rounding off of the bright acids that I'm accustomed to. As usual, kaleidoscopic in its array of flavours, so I'm not going to bother to try to describe it. Long finish, with a slight spicy tinge, and also a delicious pile of sweet stone fruit.
