AP 16.20 The 2019er Hofberg Spätlese, as it is referred to on the consumer label, was harvested at 93° Oechsle from vines planted in 1953 on the main hill of the vineyard, and was fermented down to sweet levels of residual sugar. It proves quite backward and reductive at first, but only gradually reveals its rich and juicy nose of yellow peach, spices, golden apple, honeyed pear, and a hint of camphor. Plenty of honeyed and juicy yellow fruits give the wine some Auslese allure on the sweet pal

Julian Haart Mosel Riesling 2020

Riesling | Mosel-Saar-Ruwer, Germany

Made primarily from Goldtröpchen fruit, with some grapes sourced from two more elevated vineyards, delicate playful fun dry Rizza, juicy with zippy acid. Hints of musk earthiness and a couple of savoury pops. This is very clever stuff. Nicely developed for an entry level wine it’s excellent. When you drink concentrate on the mouthfeel, the shape of the wine as it flows across your palate and clean finish.

A.J.Adam Dhroner Hofberg Spätlese Riesling 2017

Riesling | Mosel-Saar-Ruwer, Germany

AP 12.18  The 2017er Dhroner Hofberg Spätlese was harvested at 92° Oechsle in a prime parcel planted in the 1950s. It delivers a beautiful nose of whipped cream, vineyard peach, smoke, almond, earl grey and yellow plum. The wine offers great, almost concentrated presence on the mid-palate, yet a juicy and racy kick of acidity adds layers upon layers of freshness and intensity to the finish. This is a great success! 2027-2047Jean Fisch & David Rayer, Mosel Fine Wines 94 Points

Müller-Catoir Bürgergarten Erste Lage Riesling 2019
DRY
One of the Benchmark Pfalz Estates! Update Nov 2023 Two years on the Erste Lage has resolved & the epic tension of its youth has relaxed. The Pfalz tends to make wines of a weight between the Mosel and Reinhessen. This one is true to form with plenty of zip and energy. Wonderfully expressive with a flowing long finish. Great drinking with more to come!Paul Kaan, WINE DECODEDPerfumed with freshly grated lime zest, basil, white pepper and blossoming jasmine rising from the glass,

"The 2019er Brauneberger Juffer-Sonnenuhr Auslese was made from partially botrytized fruit (1/3) picked at 115° Oechsle, and was fermented down to noble-sweet levels of residual sugar (125 g/l). It offers a gorgeous nose made of elderflower, cassis, white peach, coconut, almond paste, fresh pineapple, and loads of citrusy and minty elements. The wine proves stunningly tactile and subtle on the palate, where delicately creamy fruits mingle with ripe yet gorgeously juicy acidity. The finish is al

Dr Bürklin-Wolf Riesling Forst Village 2023
DRY
Tasting through Burklin-Wolf's range, it always strikes me just how well they've done in classifying their vineyards and pricing them accordingly. Every once in a while, there is a site that outperforms its standing. Generally, you can rely on their classification and price point as an indicator of quality. The Village 'Forst' Riesling fits the rule of thumb to a tee. A lacing of savoury reduction plays with native yeast on high solids ferments adding multiple dimensions of complexity and richne

Yes! Stunning gear. I think the guys from Mosel Fine Wines calling it and Auslese Lange GK style is bang on. Lange GK = Long Gold Capsule and reference to the Reserve of the Reserve wines in Aussie vernacular. Give this 10-20 years and you'll be climbing a stairway to heaven!The 2017er Brauneberger Juffer-Sonnenuhr Auslese was harvested at well over 110° Oechsle. It offers a very classy and elegant nose of apricot blossom, whipped cream, almond, smoke and fine herbs. The wine proves highly

A super-filigree Mosel Auslese that impresses with fabulous delicacy and precision. So much vanilla-bean character, but also tropical-flower aromas. Beautifully integrated grape sweetness at the long, very refined finish. Stuart Piggot, SucklingAlso available in 375ml and Magnum!

AP: 15 22. The 2021er Hofberg Spätlese, as it is referred to on the consumer label, was made from fruit harvested at 86° Oechsle in the backside of the main hill of the vineyard and was fermented down to fruity-styled levels of residual sugar (62 g/l). It offers a beautifully aromatic and complex nose of vineyard peach, fresh pineapple, smoke, minty herbs, fine spices (ginger), and almond.

Clemens Busch Riesling Vom Blauen Schiefer 2023

Riesling | Mosel-Saar-Ruwer, Germany

The 2023er Riesling vom grauen Schiefer, as it is referred to on the main part of the label, comes from blue-slate sectors in the Pündericher Marienburg. It displays a superbly complex and finely aromatic nose of lime, minty herbs, anise, tangerine, candied grapefruit, greengage, lime tree, and apple. The wine starts off on a slightly round side with fruity and light creamy elements dominating at first, before more grip and intensity comes through. The finish is nicely focused, spicy, and l

White Cap - Dry "The lime-green-golden 2019 Bernkasteler Lay Auslese ** (White Capsule) is deep, intense and concentrated yet elegant and still precise and flinty on the nose. The attack on the palate is stunningly young and vital before the elegant and crystalline wine reveals its complexity and inner power. This is a tightly structured, very digestible and still edgy Auslese that needs another 5-6 years or so to settle and shine. This 2019 is enormously salty on the finish and highly promising

Willi Schaefer Graacher Domprobst Riesling Kabinett 2021

Riesling | Mosel-Saar-Ruwer, Germany

AP: 03 22. The 2021er Graacher Domprobst Riesling Kabinett AP 03 is a fruity-styled wine with a still quite restrained and smoky nose at first? It takes a while to reveal its complexity and finesse underlined by fine notes of stone fruit, lead pencil, herbs, bergamot, blackberry, cherry, violet, and lavender. The wine is still very tight on the palate but already hints at the greatness to come as there is great density and purity. The finish is still somewhat sharp yet its incredibly multi-layer
