Although each new year brings pleasant surprises from this cellar, the last exceptional vintage here was 2003. That said, 2007 is certainly much better than was 2006. The whole range is consistently good, showing juicy fruit and a refreshing elegance, but are few wines stand out and none that can compare with those from the Germany's finest estates. That may sound harsh, as most producers would be pleased to bottle anything of this quality, but my heart skips a beat when I see this label, so I approach the wines with high expectations. On a comparatively positive note, no one on the Ruwer did a better job in 2007.
