Fritz Haag, Auslese GK 2001 # 9 - a huge wine, not very developed, very tight, quite heavy and sweet, Difficult to judge whether it is on par with 1994 #4 and 1990 #11, but I have my doubts. But is an outstanding wine, and it needs at least 10 more years to unfold, and will keep for additional 20 …
