Score 89/100 · Drink 2003-2010, Pierre Rovani, Oct 2003
The earth and gravel-scented 2001 Riesling Cuvee Theo is a light to medium-bodied wine crammed with stones, quinine, and minerals. It has admirable purity, concentration, depth, and length. Drink it over the next 7 years. Importer: Vineyard Brands, Birmingham, AL; tel. (205) 980-8802

Lime and powdered stone on the nose. Dry but rich, with flavors dominated by wet stone and petrol. At once supple and serious, with harmonious ripe acidity hiding the 4.5 grams of residual sugar.
