R. H. Buller & Sons Fine Tokay, NV,Victoria, Australia, 375 ml

"The dark-amber-hued Premium Fine Tawny offers sumptuous notes of spice box, Christmas pudding, figs, brown sugar, and molasses … Its freshness, good acidity, soaring aromatics, and unctuous flavors must be tasted to be believed." WA 95

Chambers Rosewood Vineyards, Rutherford Glen Special Muscat, NV, Victoria, Australia, 375 ml

"This luxurious offering possesses such extraordinary unctuosity, thickness, complexity, and richness that it must be tasted to be believed. It is not just a big, thick sugar ball, because it has sound underlying acidity as well as remarkable complexity and freshness … The wine possesses notes of smoke, roasted nuts, coffee, brown sugar, maple syrup, prunes, honey, fruitcake, overripe orange/apricots, and remarkable spicy characters … In summary, life is too short not to try this wine ... a true Australian treasure." WA 98

1998 Alois Kracher, Chardonnay, Trockenbeerenauslese #2, Austria, 375 ml

"The pale yellow-colored 1998 Chardonnay Trockenbeerenauslese Nouvelle Vague Number 2 displays aromas of jammy peaches and apricots dusted with botrytis. Medium to full-bodied and thick, this is a sweet red raspberry, jellied apricot, candied peach, and spice-flavored wine. It is dense and oily-textured, yet pure and fresh. Projected maturity: Now-2020." WA 93
