I don't care how much I have to pay to get my hands on a 2005 Beerenauslese, it's worth it. 2005 is said to be the best vintage that any German winemaker can remember... While I could have laid this down for a decade or two, I couldn't wait to open it immediately. It was unreal. It tasted like apricot-filled beignets with powdered sugar on top, and still managed a semi-dry baked apples finish that lasted for minutes. Outstanding!
