Now that this famous estate is turning out stellar wines once again, the only problem remaining is the pricing. This auslese features slaty, minerally aromas touched with hints of honey and quince, then opens up on the palate to reveal honey, pear, melon and even a hint of peach, all undergirded by a bedrock of minerality. It’s sweet but balanced, with a crystal-clean finish and plenty of length.——J.C.(3/1/2009)—— 92
