92 - “The Feiler’s 2005 Ruster Ausbruch Essenz Jonathan is yet another noble variant on Chardonnay and Welschriesling. In a tradition of nobly sweet wine that extends from the Neusiedlersee to Alsace, a special cuvee is named for a family member, in this instance the latest of the Feiler clan, with which it shares a vintage. Glazed apricot, pear nectar, quince jelly, and honey in the nose lead to a remarkable palate of enormous richness and viscosity yet an airy delicate touch. This almost floats away in the finish but lacks the primary fruit, spiciness, and grip that made the “regular†(if one can even use that word!) 2006 Ausbruch Essenz especially irresistible. Still, I’ve no doubt there will be further rewards in store for any few who cellar this wine for one or two decades.” |
