2001 Riesling Cuvee Frederic Emile Vendange Tardive

Bright yellow color. Knockout nose combines orange zest, pineapple, petrol, powdered stone and hints of more exotic fruits. Like an essence of crushed fruits in the mouth, framed by electric acidity. Wonderfully dense and long. An infant today and destined for a long life in bottle. Pierre compares it to the '89 version, but points out that this has better acidity.
