Doug Banks getting his sniff on in the Rhone room. This Riesling was very solid and delicious but relatively simple. Petrol, apricot, lemon tart. — 10 years ago

Eitelsbacher Karthauserhofberg auslese long gold capsule 2004, VDP auction. With peppers stuffed 3 ways: trout mousse, foie gras, and Gorgonzola. A match for all three. The wine had enough botrytis to be beerenauslase--light and deep at the same time like the food. Great job in the kitchen, Gary! — 11 years ago

One of our all-time favorite estates and one that is a hallmark of great Ruwer Valley Rieslings--delicate, elegant, downright pretty! This 1989 late-pick is a small botrytis bomb yet never heavy or cloying--a truly sensuous experience!
