Georg Breuer 2003 Rauenthaler Nonnenberg Riesling Trockenbeerenauslese (Rheingau)

Price $283

Insanely priced, but if you love ultrasticky dessert wines, this is one you’ll want to try at least once. Shows the merest hint of volatility on the nose, but also striking floral and mineral components. Broad and viscous on the palate, with intensely honeyed flavors of dried apricots and orange marmalade that last a long, long time. Should age virtually forever. — J.C. (9/1/2006)

Georg Breuer 2003 Rauenthaler Nonnenberg Auslese Riesling (Rheingau)

Price $79

Very sweet and unctuous, this thick, honeyed wine tastes more like a beerenauslese (or more), but without much if any botrytis. Candied pineapple and penetrating orange flavors coat the palate. Despite low acidity, this wine seems more balanced than a couple of Breuer’s earlier 2003 releases. Hold 10–15 years, unless you like drinking marmalade. Imported by… — J.C. (2/1/2006)

Georg Breuer 1998 Rüdeshemier Berg Schlossberg Riesling (Rheingau)

Price $40

Slate, smoke and tart and tropical fruit scents mix in the beguiling nose. This concentrated wine is still young and tight, but it already shows rich, full fruit flavors that broaden into a full, generous finish as it breathes. The brisk acidity and mineral-slate elements add depth and complexity. Can use a few years to show all its best stuff. — W.E. (8/1/2001)

Georg Breuer 2004 Berg Schlossberg Auslese Riesling (Rheingau)

Price $95

On the full-bodied side, but the combined weight of sugar and alcohol is ably balanced by bountiful acids. Floral notes lead off the nose, followed by hints of pineapple and spice, then dried apricots and candied fruit kick in on the palate. Clean on the finish, not overly sweet or cloying. — J.C. (9/1/2006)

Georg Breuer 2003 Berg Schlossberg Trockenbeerenauslese Riesling (Rheingau)

Price $250

There’s a hint of volatility to the otherwise heady aromas of dried apricot and candied pineapple, but the flavors seem unaffected, delivering loads of sweet stone fruit and citrus. Thick and viscous on the palate, finishing long and sweet, if somewhat low in acidity. Approachable now, but should easily age for 20–30 years. Imported by Classical Wines — J.C. (5/1/2005)

Georg Breuer 2004 Rüdesheim Berg Schlossberg QbA Riesling (Rheingau)

Online Exclusive

Price $55

Big and full-bodied, with just a touch of sugar in evidence, while the alcohol is up to 13%. Petrol and slate notes mark the nose, while the fruit features pineapple, nectarine and melon. Long, powerful and citrusy on the finish, with underlying minerality and spice that provides fascinating complexity. Great now, but there’s no reason this shouldn’t age well for… — J.C. (10/1/2007)

Georg Breuer 2001 Terra Montosa Riesling (Rheingau)

Editors' Choice

Price $20

Dusty and smoky, the emphasis is on dried earth and spices, with mere hints of baked apple. It’s a full-bodied, muscular Riesling that shows the essence of the earth from which it comes, enlivened by a bracing, lemony finish. Editors’ Choice. —J.C. — J.C. (3/1/2003)

Georg Breuer 2002 Terra Montosa Qualitätswein Riesling (Rheingau)

Price $22

This big, muscular Riesling is practically dry and features very little overt fruitiness. Instead, it’s loaded with minerals: the aromas are of diesel fuel and vegetable oil, the flavors are liquid stone. Finishes long. — J.C. (11/1/2004)
