Müller-Catoir
Mußbacher Eselshaut Trockenbeerenauslese Rieslaner
1994: Deep red and walnut color. Poured out slow, so the richness was telegraphed. Enough acid to keep you pressing forward.

Feb 5th, 2015Opened by mistake, thought it was one of two ice wines but it's the only TBA, from wgbh set of three. Unbelievable dark amber color with a viscous sheen that sets it apart from any look alikes. Layers of tropical fruits and floral notes peel off insistently but graciously, happy to just keep sniffing all night. On the palate first a burst of sweet acids if there is such a thing and then a lively dancing texture and slowly fading finish. Older Fred Astaire showing off his effortless elegance and style. Remarkably stayed the same over several days and even alin half small bottle over two days. Really too bad this is it and no sharing.
