Scharzhofberger Feine Auslese Nikolauswein 1970, geerntet 5/6 Dezember.
Since this is pre-1971 wine law, there is no AP number and the now
forbidden words "Feine" and "Nikolauswein" are used. Several very late
harvest wines, including eisweins, were made in 1970, although 1970, in
general, was not as good as 1971.

The wine is a fairly full yellow and holding well. It is a rather rich
auslese showing good concentrated fruit, but little evidence of honey
and tropical fruits often fond in the very best years. It is not as good
as Egon Muller's 1971 Scharzhofberger Auslese, but then not many other
of Muller's wines are as good as his 1971 auslese either. This wine
should hold very well several more years.
