Tesch 2001 Langenlonsheimer Lohrer Berg Eiswein Riesling (Nahe)

Price $68

There might be a hint of botrytis, but this is largely clean, delivering sweet pineapple, peach, melon and citrus flavors. Fat and unctuous for an eiswein, and finishes soft, but is still delicious. —J.C. — J.C. (3/1/2003)

Tesch 2001 Langenlonsheimer Lohrer Berg Auslese Riesling (Nahe)

Price $30

Quite sweet, even for an auslese, with ample evidence of botrytis in its dried apricot and orange-blossom aromas. Tastes of honey and orange marmalade, with just enough acidity to keep it drinkable. Finishes long and sweet. —J.C. — J.C. (3/1/2003)

Tesch 2001 Langenlonsheimer Löhrer Berg Kabinett Halbtrocken Riesling (Nahe)

Price $15

In some wines, the juxtaposition of soft, flowery aromas against a backbone of steely acidity might not work. In this case it does, matching lilacs with quince and minerals in a harmonious whole. The result smells like spring, but finishes firm and long. —J.C. — J.C. (3/1/2003)

points

Tesch 2001 Langenlonsheimer Lohrer Berg Spätlese Riesling (Nahe)

Price $21

Starts off with tart, lemony aromas of quince and unripe apples, but tastes sweeter and riper, with bold apple flavors and considerable sugar kept in check by zippy, grapefruit-like acidity. —J.C. — J.C. (3/1/2003)

points

Tesch 2001 Laubenheimer St. Remigiusberg Spätlese Trocken Riesling (Nahe)

Price $23

Seems tough and ungenerous at first. Take some time to get to know this wine, and its prickly exterior melts away to yield the crisp, stony flavors of hard white peaches and a long, mouthwatering finish. —J.C. — J.C. (3/1/2003)

points

Tesch 2001 QbA Halbtrocken Riesling (Nahe)

Online Exclusive

Price $10

This halbtrocken tastes drier than some trockens. That's because there's a sharp, sour-apple note to the acidity that conceals any residual sugar. The citrus and green apple flavors are light, tart and dry, finishing crisp and clean. — J.C. (1/1/2004)
