How the Sweet Wines Rate

Here are impressions of BUSINESS WEEK tasters who recently sampled dessert 
wines:

CHATEAU SUDUIRAUT          This smoky Sauternes has
1990 $60*, France          a complicated taste that
                           stays with you

INNISKILLIN VIDAL          Pleasantly thick, with
ICEWINE 1995               a clean, sweet scent and a
$45 (375 ml), Canada       hintofcitrus and hazelnut

SETUBAL SUPERIOR           Very sweet, thick, woody,
1965 Jose Maria da         and pungent--with a
Fonseca $50, Portugal      strong aftertaste

SICHEL TROCKENBEEREN-      Apple-cidery sweet,
AUSLESE Kirchheimer        smooth, and rich;
Kreux 1990 $33, Germany    lingers on the tongue

*PRICES ARE FROM MORRELL & CO. IN NEW YORK
