Score 94/100 · Drink 2010-2025, Pierre Rovani, Oct 2002

Sweetened scallions can be discerned in the nose of the medium to full-bodied 2001 Riesling Auslese Oberhauser Brucke. A wine of great harmony, depth, and power, it coats the palate with lingering poached pear and spice flavors. Lush, wonderfully elegant, and exceptionally long, it is a superb Auslese for drinking between 2010 and 2025. Helmut Donnhoff approached the 2001 vintage much as Reggie Jackson would have reacted to facing a fast ball down the middle thrown by a Junior Varsity pitcher in the bottom of the ninth of the last game of the World Series. Donnhoff hit a towering, grand slam home run of majestic proportions. His 2001s are extraordinary. Importer: Terry Theise Estate Selections, imported by Michael Skurnik Wines, Inc., Syosset, NY; tel.

Fine, more focused than the Niederhäuser Hermannshohle with more marked acidity. Extremely concentrated and impressively tense, considering its charge of sheer exuberantly ripe fruit. (JR)
