| 1998 FX Pichler Unendlich. Oh. My. God. The best dry Riesling I have ever tasted and every bit as good as any Wienbach L’Inedit! Making it either the best wine or tied for the best wine I’ve had in the non-dessert Riesling department. Huge (for a dry Riesling) with hints of botrytis (odd for a dry wine? – can someone confirm that this is indeed what I was tasting?). Apple and pear base fruit with nuances of white peach, citrus blossoms, wet stones, limestone, slate, guava, minerals and a wonderful, viscous petrol. Incredibly layered. Incredible, long long long finish. Though not the most hedonistically appealing, the most intellectually satisfying white wine I have ever tasted. WOTN. 95(+?)
