"Best of the Best" Tasting (Switzerland): As in the note of PINKMOONWINERY another bottle out of the Richter cellar. Color was a deep but clear amber. Notes of dried apricots, orange peel, dried pear and candied fruit. The taste was wonderful, showing flavors of chestnut honey, malt, Creme Brulee. The wine is very long, complex yet so elegant. The only deductions from a close to perfect rating is that the acidity-sweetness is not fully in balance. A wine to drink with no hurry and very likely still fit on its 100th Birtday.

Richter Raritäten Degu (Restaurant Farnsburg, Switzerland): Popcorn, crème brûlée roasted almonds, birnel (a thickened pear juice). Very very long and super elegant! A truly great sauterens with so much life ahead!
