Barth René 2002 Vignoble de Bennwihr Pinot Blanc
- Best Buy
- $13
Unusually rich for a Pinot Blanc, with scents of honey, dried apricots, peaches and dried spices giving an impression of sweetness that’s balanced on the palate by bright acidity that imparts a pineapple flavor. Finishes dry, fresh and minerally. Imported by Atlanta Improvement Co.

Barth René 2004 Vignoble de Bennwihr Riesling
- $13
A dry, petrolly Riesling, this boasts classic green-apple and lime aromas and flavors and a long, crisply acidic finish. A solid effort that avoids residual sugar but also excessive leanness.

Barth René 2003 Mambourg Grand Cru Riesling
- Online Exclusive
- $27
Opens with a blast of zesty lemon-lime fruit, then turns slightly sweet in the mouth, with the flavors moving toward ripe or maybe even baked apples. Finshes soft, with a hint of cinnamon.

Barth René 2002 Grand Cru Marckrain Pinot Gris
- $30
A little green and hard, with persistent aromas of petrol, underripe apple and mineral. Opens up some on the palate, where melon, pear and citrus flavors hold court. Finishes with tinny, metallic notes, yet still refreshes. Imported by Atlanta Improvement Co.

Barth René 2003 Vignoble de Bennwihr Pinot Gris
- $17
Ginger and tonic water on the nose, with pear, apple and sweet melon flavors. Seems a touch off-dry, with licorice and candy on the finish. Spunky but feminine in style. Imported by Atlanta Improvement Co.

Barth René 2003 Roemerberg Gewurztraminer
- Online Exclusive
- $20
Peppery and gingery on the nose, followed by flavors of pear and melon. This is a broad, sweet, low-acid Gewürztraminer, that's pleasant enough but doesn't show enough concentration or length to rise above good.

Barth René 2003 Rebgarten Riesling
- $19
Smells and tastes a bit confected, with lime sherbet aromas vying with hints of spring flowers and talcum powder, turning a little sweet and flabby in the mouth.
