The Wine Advocate rating: 99. Nothing in year's weather could foretell such a great result. harvests began in mid-September with a preliminary sorting. And then perfect scenario played out: light rains came on weekend of 22-23 September, and botrytis was absorbed by grapes, causing rapid and uniform concentration, enhanced by a warm and windy Indian summer. vineyard went from a golden yellow to botrytis violet in just three days. Under action of eastern wind, botrytis wavered and wrinkled, contracting and concentrating juices. Harvest was quick and concentrated, on a single pass for certain plots, which is unprecedented at Rieussec. In early tastings, nose is powerful and dominated by apricot and candied melon notes. In mouth attack is delicate and full of finesse. It then develops in volume and an amazing sensation arises in mouth. balance between acidity and liquor is so perfect that sugar totally disappears. This very rare perception can only be experienced with exceptional Sauterne Minimize

Vinification: Cribari Madeira is composed of slowly baked cream sherry which is then blended with Flor Sherry and sweetened with Muscat. Grapes are harvested at the optimal sugar and acid or dessert winemaking. The sweet grape juice is blended with wine spirits to capture and preserve the natural fruitiness of the grapes, and then allowed to age to develop the distinctive aromas and bouquest which define Cribari Madeira.

Wine Enthusiast rating: 95. In 1994, desire to produce an ice wine, or Eiswein, as it is called in Germany, prompted us to adopt an innovative program whereby Scheurebe grapes would be picked late in season and then commercially frozen, thus concentrating their already-high sugar levels. We called wine Eisrebe. Although German Eisweins are produced from fruit that is actually picked frozen from vine, we found that by freezing grapes ourselves we could fashion a delicious dessert wine that is viscous and smooth, with excellent acidity to balance sweetness. 2009 Scheurebe has delicate aromas of apricot, citrus blossom, honey, and creme caramel followed by a rich and unctuous texture integrated with well balanced, bright acidity and a persistent finish. Grape & Source: 100% Scheurebe from our home ranch in Spring Valley outside of Saint Helena in Napa Valley. Minimize
