Boy would my son be happy if we did that! My little buddy has quite the sweet tooth and the prospect of starting dinner with a huge slice of pumpkin pie topped with a mound of whipped cream would be like an early Christmas present!
But what I am talking about is the inevitable parade of wines we, and every other retailer, trots out this time of year as a perfect pairing for your Turkey Table. And we will get to those... but let's start with dessert. A dessert wine that is...
Steindorfer Cuvée Klaus Beerenauslese 2015
Sale $26.99 for 375ml half-bottle

Go ahead... compare with the other great dessert wines of the world...

This is just glorious nectar... liquid gold! 70% Muskat Ottonel, 30% Sauvignon Blanc The elegant nose of wildflower honey and fresh peaches leads into an intense mouthful of fruit, spice and toffee. Each sip changes multiple times in your mouth! Crazy good stuff, it will age for another twenty years!
"Caramel and toffee on the nose join the musky botrytis notes. The rounded palate is concentrated sweetness itself: rich, unctuous, intense but countered by an almost blossomy, bright pure freshness. The finish is vivid and intense and totally lasting. Drink until 2045."
