Robert Parker, The Wine Advocate
Reviewer, Pierre Rovani - Given the gelatinous nature and increasing power of the previous wines, readers may understand the trepidation with which I approached the 2000 #10 Welschriesling Trockenbeerenauslese Zwischen den Seen (5.5% alcohol, 399.6 grams residual sugar/liter, and 7.8 grams/liter total acidity), particularly after seeing it ooze its way from the bottle to my glass. Bronze-colored and molasses-scented, this is a wine of awesome depth, density, and richness. Akin to drinking honey (yet no honey has ever been this complex), its super-thick, voluminous personality bastes the palate with oily apricot and canned peach flavors. Through the viscous morass of fruit, a piercing underlying acidity can be discerned. Given the fact that acidity and sugar are preservatives, this wine will undoubtedly outlast its cork, and may outlive its bottle!
