Take this wine and Schoffit

Schoffit 1997 Riesling Rangen de Thann Clos Saint-Théobald (Alsace) – Brown, volcanic, and ancient. A fossil in amber. The cork seems fine – plump, moist, minor staining only on the bottom – but clearly something went massively wrong here. An eighty-year-old riesling unearthed from someone’s basement. (12/08)
