C.H. Berres 1990 Erdener Treppchen Beerenauslese Riesling (Mosel-Saar-Ruwer)

Editors' Choice

Price $80

It’s rare to see older vintages of German wines released straight from the estate cellars, so if you haven’t had the chance to sample older German dessert wines, this may be worth a try. It’s pretty darn good, too, with lovely clover blossom and honey scents leading into dried apricot and juicy pineapple flavors. Don’t expect a thick, syrupy wine—this has a light… — J.C. (9/1/2006)

C.H. Berres 2004 Ürziger Goldwingert Auslese Riesling (Mosel-Saar-Ruwer)

Price $48

A nicely balanced auslese that’s not too rich or sweet, marrying ripe apples and pears with floral notes, tropical fruit and a healthy dose of crushed-stone minerality. Finishes with flourishes of pineapple and citrus. Imported by Classical Wines. — J.C. (5/1/2006)

C.H. Berres 2004 Erdener Treppchen Kabinett Riesling (Mosel-Saar-Ruwer)

Price $21

A very good kabinett, one that effortlessly combines aromas of fresh greens, mixed citrus and green apples in a relatively lightweight package. Apple, citrus and melon flavors turn slightly honeyed on the finish, while remaining crisp enough to be rereshing. — J.C. (7/1/2006)

C.H. Berres 2004 Impulse (Sapphire) QbA Riesling (Mosel-Saar-Ruwer)

Online Exclusive

Price $14

A touch drier than the Gold label Impulse Riesling previously reviewed, this wine has a fine, almost filigreed bouquet of finely intertwined lime and mineral notes accented by green plum. Lean and elegant, with a crisp finish and good length. — J.C. (12/1/2006)

C.H. Berres 2004 Impulse (Gold) QbA Riesling (Mosel-Saar-Ruwer)

Price $14

This fresh, medium-bodied Riesling is clean and fruity, combining flavors of ripe pears and white peaches with hints of apple and slate. Imported by Classical Wines. — J.C. (5/1/2006)

points

C.H. Berres 2005 Impulse Estate Riesling (Mosel-Saar-Ruwer)

Price $13

Starts off well, featuring scents of green apples and honey. But the flavors are simple and it’s a bit on the weighty side, with ample (12%) alcohol and some residual sugar as well. — J.C. (8/1/2007)
