| | Nice note, but FYI, all Christoffel wines have gold capsules. He uses stars to denote special bottlings, not capsules. | | | |

| | This was at a double blind tasting and that is how the MS hosting it read the wine off once it was revealed, so I wrote it down that way. Thanks for the clarification. | | | |

| | Thanks for straightening that out, RF. My head was spinning for a few moments before I figured out what the real deal was. After running to my cellar and checking my Christoffel's, it made sense to me. | | | Cheers, y'all | |

WIML90,PURPLE90,WA89,WS90
Tasted February 15, 2007 at home. Opened and served immediately in a Spiegelau Authentis Weiss Wein Glass. Straw to light yellow color in the glass, clear hue throughout. Tight nose of apricots, honeysuckle, and oranges. Flavors of peaches, lychee, pears and a mix of citrus fruits. Medium to racy acidity, light to medium body. Drink or hold. I'll pop my next bottle in 2010. (90 pts.) | | | Joe-----Wine is like potato chips around me...if it's open, it's gone. | |
