"One of the stars of the Rheinpfalz, Lingenfelder has turned in a superlative performance in 1992. The 1992 Freinsheimer Goldberg Scheurebe Auslese is hauntingly close to perfection. A spectacular honeyed, curranty, floral-scented nose is followed by a rich, slightly sweet wine with stunning precision to its massively-endowed, concentrated flavors. This huge wine, which was picked at beerenauslese ripeness and fermented nearly dry, is a blockbuster effort that must be tasted to be believed. Given its sublime quality and spectacular concentration and power, the price of . . . a half-bottle is a steal.

The spiritual home of Riesling, producing wines of piercing acidity, precision and longevity across a spectrum from bone-dry to lusciously sweet. Cool, steep-sloped vineyards along the Mosel and Rhine yield some of the world's most delicate, long-lived whites.
