"There simply wasn't much botrytis this year," relates Wilhelm Haag, who says he can't think of another vintage with a similar flavor profile either. "We tried our hardest to get a Beerenauslese and ended up with all of 28 liters from five or six days' picking. There just wasn't much there. And Eiswein is something I don't make. The Brauneberg sites are too good [i.e., warm and sheltered] for that." Haag's yields this year were down significantly even from the small 1997 levels. )
