Experts’ opinions

Robert Parker
"Hard as it is to believe, the 2005 Schoenenbourg is even more intensely perfumed than the 2004, with gardenia, lily, and chamomile backed by honey, brown spices, and herbal distillates, and hinting at ocean breezes. Creamy in texture and ultra-rich, packing copious helpings of candied citrus, herbal essences, marzipan, and honey, this nevertheless maintains elegance and refinement – a testimony to among other things a subtle near-perfection of botrytis. Marginally less remarkable in finish than the 2004, it is still extraordinarily long, much as it will no doubt be long-lived."
Wine Spectator
"Quince paste and apple pie flavors are lightly honeyed, accented by hints of cinnamon, anise and smoke, with a touch of petrol. A rich wine, just off-dry, but with good acidity for balance. This would pair well with food, perhaps even foie gras. Drink now through 2017. 50 cases imported."
