Schloss Vollrads 2003 Beerenauslese Riesling (Rheingau)

Price $180

92–94 Orange marmalade and dried apricots run rampant on the nose, joined by spicy notes reminiscent of nutmeg or cinnamon. Flavors are mouthcoating and rich, yet never seem heavy, and last a long, long time. — W.E. (8/1/2004)

Schloss Vollrads 2002 Eiswein Riesling (Rheingau)

Price $160

This wine’s high acidity provides balance for the wine’s intense sweetness, imparting a racy quality to the long, lemony finish. Aromas and flavors of “yellow” fruits–pineapple, citrus and quince–predominate. — W.E. (8/1/2004)

Honey and dried apricot notes accent the pineapple-infelcted fruit in this full-bodied, sweet auslese. Melon rounds out the midpalate, which offers plenty of flavor and succulence if not a ton of mineral complexity. — J.C. (4/1/2010)

Online Exclusive

Price $350

Starts off with some intriguing notes of musk and spice, the turns intensely sweet, with powerful honey and orange marmalade flavors that coat the mouth and refuse to leave.
