Note di degustazione
The liquid mineral-scented 1999 Riesling Brand, harvested at 25 hectoliters per hectare, is a velvety-textured, medium-bodied wine. The richest of Humbrecht's 1999 Rieslings, it has a sexy, lush, feminine character filled with ripe pears, fruit pulp, herbal tea, and spices. It has outstanding depth and a long finish that reveals berry-like fruits. Drink it over the next dozen years. Importer: Kermit Lynch Wine Merchant, Berkeley, CA; tel. (510) 524-1524

Knockout nose of fresh and dried fruits, honey and white flowers. Delicious fruit salad and citrus skin flavors complicated by spices and honey. Lovely ripe acidity leavens the 22 g/l residual sugar. Very rich and dense, and much easier to taste today than the Rangen. I like the balance here.
