Wine Advocate (97-99)The Fonseca 2011 is typically more forthcoming on the nose compared to the bashful Croft: a strident bouquet with lifted scents of freshly picked blackberries, kirsch, crushed stone and a dash of Hoi Sin and oyster sauce. It is very well-defined, very focused and direct. The palate is silky smooth with not a rough edge in sight, though not a typically voluptuous Fonseca because of the keen thread of acidity and the structure that lends this mighty Port wonderful backbone. A slight viscosity on the finish lacquers the tongue and indicates a core of sweet fruit is ticking away underneath that will surely explode several years after bottling. A tincture of salted licorice on the aftertaste is very attractive. This will turn out to become an outstanding Fonseca, the growing season taming its exuberance with spectacular results. So much potential, but just 6,000 cases were produced. Tasted May 2013. |

Afficionados of fine Rieslings will delight in the Georg Breuer Rauenthaler Nonnenberg Riesling 2004. Produced in the historical vineyards of Germany's Rheingau region, this esteemed vintage captures the true essence of its pristine terroir. Master winemaker Georg Breuer used traditional Riesling vinification methods - hand-picking, spontaneous fermentation and protracted settling - to create a wine of intense complexity. The Rauenthaler Nonnenberg vineyard's unique south-facing slopes enhance growth, furnishing the grapes with optimal ripeness and imparting the wine with its distinct character. The 2004 vintage is evocative of ripe yellow fruits, underpinned by minerality, resulting from the vineyard's quartzite soils. Georg Breuer, a stalwart of German viticulture, ensures the sustainable cultivation of these beautiful vineyards, continuing his commitment to the quality synonymous with his name. Each bottle of Georg Breuer Rauenthaler Nonnenberg Riesling 2004 is a testament to the harmony of tradition, terroir, and meticulous winemaking. |
