Score 96/100 · Robert Parker, Aug 2004

The 2002 Mr. K The Iceman (made from Gewurztraminer from the Babcock Vineyard) tastes like a wonderfully rich yet crisp beerenauslese with a sweet, honeyed personality, tremendous richness, great delineation, and an amazing finish. These wines look like motor oil, but they possess superb underlying acidity, freshness, and purity. The residual sugar is 272 grams per liter, and the finished alcohol is 12%, all with 7.6 grams per liter of acidity! Tel. (805) 649-8901
