Served with roasted T-bones topped with horseradish-chive compound butter and braised leeks. Needless to say, it was a Guys' Night and the menu reflected that. I couldn't exactly honor this wine with a cube of tofu and an artfully arranged sprig of basil.
The name of the wine comes from Goethe's play, in which a man makes a deal with the devil. Sadly my German language education stopped short of literature, where I'm sure I would have had the pleasure of reading this work in die Muttersprache. We stopped with history, meaning that I know a lot about the Holy Roman Empire but none of the English names for any of it.

I don't know much about history, and I don't know much biology either. But I do know this: this wine is splendid!
Faust must have changed vinters the next year because the 2006 Faust was a huge disappointment, and the retailers didnt get the news because they kept price in Forties.
