1998 Schmit Sohn MSR's

[hotwine]

She's in Houston again this weekend, plundering the antique shops with her two sisters, so I had a fresh seafood salad and frozen seafood dinner tonight, and paired with three of these little (187 ml) puppies. Began with the plain ol' MSR Riesling, then had the Kabinett as the meal was ending, and the Spatlese for dessert. Very nice, in spite of the abuse these lil darlin's suffered in the cellar before it was properly chilled. Had honestly assumed they were history, screw caps and all, but what a pleasant surprise - no damage at all, still with good strong fruit and a lovely finish. Think there's a dozen or two of these little fellers still down there, as well as bunches of full-sized bottles of same. Now classifying them as "drinkers", rather than "give-aways".
