Bacharacher Hahn Riesling Auslese (0.5L) 1999

Toni Jost 's 1999 Bacharacher Hahn Riesling Auslese is a masterpiece from the legendary Bacharacher Hahn vineyard in the Middle Rhine wine-growing region. This vintage demonstrates the impressive finesse and complexity for which Toni Jost's wines are known.
In the glass, the wine shines in a brilliant, light gold hue with greenish reflections, indicating its fresh yet mature structure. On the nose, the Bacharacher Hahn Riesling Auslese 1999 is a veritable explosion of aromas. Initially, intense, ripe fruit notes such as yellow peaches, apricots, and exotic fruits dominate, accompanied by delicate honey nuances that indicate the high ripeness of the grapes and the noble sweetness of this Auslese. Aromas of candied citrus fruits and a hint of floral accents lend the wine additional depth and complexity.
On the palate, the wine presents a remarkable balance between sweetness and acidity. The Auslese is powerful, yet refined and elegant. The sweetness is opulent without ever seeming heavy or overpowering. Instead, it is carried by a lively, delicate acidity that lends the wine freshness and length. The texture is creamy and full-bodied, with a long and aromatic finish, with hints of citrus, honey, and a mineral note that typifies the Bacharach vineyards.
Toni Jost's Bacharacher Hahn Riesling Auslese 1999 is a superb representative of the noble sweet Rieslings of the Middle Rhine. With its harmonious interplay of fruit, sweetness, acidity, and minerality, this wine has the potential to mature and develop further for many years to come. Ideal with spicy cheeses, exotic dishes, or simply as a luxurious conclusion to a meal.
