Georg Breuer Rheingau Riesling Auslese 2005 9.5 % alcohol about $20 (half-sized bottle)
After all these years I don’t have the marketing materials. The back label says nothing. And now for my review.
At the first sips this wine was honeyed, thick, and syrupy. When paired with Japanese rice crackers its acidity perked up. It was delicious. My initial meal centered on a boxed Baked Ziti Siciliano doused with grated Parmesan cheese. The Riesling brimmed with lemon and caramel. It tingled. Fresh strawberries rendered our German friend syrupy and long with the taste of lime. However macaroons (coconut cookies) overwhelmed it. I made sure not to waste the nectar.
