Tasting notes
The 1990 Riesling Brand V.T. may turn out to be a perfect wine in 4-5 years. Its tropical fruit-scented nose exhibits the most botrytis in its scents of apricots, peaches, and, remarkably, roses (an aroma found most frequently in Barolo and Gewurztraminer). A full-bodied, huge, massively concentrated, off-dry wine, crammed with the essence of the Riesling grape, it offers a remarkable wine tasting experience. It will improve in the bottle for 7-10 years and last for up to two decades. Although quantities are limited, this wine is a must purchase if you are a Riesling lover. Importer: Wine Markets International, Woodbury, NY.
