93 Points | International Wine Cellar , November/December 2005

($72; for 375 ml.; 8.7% alcohol, 233 g/l residual sugar, 7.6 g/l acidity) Medium yellow-gold. The nose is somewhat more closed than that of the No. 5 Scheurebe but displays more of the honey and currant aromas typical of the variety, along with dried pear and fresh herbs. Highly concentrated, juicy flavors of blood orange and dried fruits persist impressively on the aftertaste. This wine displays the old slightly oxidative style in a positive way, which is how the scheurebe has been at its best for decades in the Seewinkel. Drink 2010 to 2030.
