Intensely flavored late harvest Riesling with enough acidity to keep it in balance. It was perhaps a gimmick to pick the grapes on January 1, 2000, but the end result is delicious. Heady nose and flavors of apricot, pineapple, nutmeg, honey, mint, and anise. Rich, oily mouth feel. A perfect match with fresh fruit. We have no clue how this wine would age, but why wait? - WB Team 2001-02-02
