dessert wines

not much of wine connoisseurs, L. and i have been trying out dessert wines. curiosity sparked, i just googled "dessert wines" and here's a description of a good dessert wine (see website):

"German Beerenauslese (BA) and Trockenbeerenauslese (TBA) from the Mosel-Saar-Ruwer and Rheingau regions. They are made from nobly-rotted Riesling grapes. TBA is made from the most highly raisined grapes only and is outrageously sweet. Some say these are every bit as good as any Sauternes (including d'Yquem), and they are a lot rarer, since noble rot strikes Germany far less often than Sauternes."

Nobly-rotted. Right.


Listening to: "I Am A Wicked Child" by Radiohead.
