Smells like gruner veltliner, green apples, can says? Tastes kinda sparkly. Very easy drinking, great with Vietnamese food at van da.

Man, these Julian Haart '16s are awesome from what I've tasted thus far. Electric, juicy, mineral Rieslings with more verve and tension than you can shake a stick at. Very young and a little too reductive on opening right now so splash it in a decanter for a bit and better yet, wait for a few years. Pours a pale gold hue. Medium (+) concentration of aromatics of some slightly funky crushed slate minerality, slightly underripe white peach, honeydew melon, some lees influence that is coming across as aged, hard cheese rind and a slight lager-esque character, and there's some sugar snap pea character as well. There's some of that struck match reduction aroma upon opening as well, but it blows off with a bit of air. On the palate, there's more crushed slate, white peach (ripe rather than underripe like on the nose), honeydew melon, hard cheese rind leesiness, and a bit of beeswax character that was absent on the nose. Nice length on the palate as well. Juicy, intense high acidity, lean, light body, just the slightest bit off-dry. Really nice stuff! Julian's studied under some pretty impressive names (Egon Müller included amongst them) and it definitely shows. Excited to see what he does in the future. — 8 years ago

Better than the 16' Egon Kabi I feel. It's just so playful, deep, and incisive, with Grunhaus' trademark lightness. The nose feels really cool - smoke, mint, fresh cut herbs, sea breeze, citrus oil, cassis, and lime. As usual, the palate's very juicy and long. Leaves you craving for the next pour. Sadly, I brought a 750 ml to a 10 people dinner. Dream pairing with crispy roasted suckling pig though 🤤 — 6 years ago
Ofcourse way too young, needs probably another 5 years in the cellar but I absolutely enjoy this youthfulness aswell with already great balance of sweetness and acidity with loads of fresh stone fruit and citrus flavours and a lot of floral notes. Already shows nice complexity and the finish is loooooong — 8 years ago
Merry Christmas indeed! Absolutely stunning. — 9 years ago
Egon Mauer was for a long period the cellar master of the State Domaine in Eltville, the largest fine wine estate in Germany.
This #1976, from the great #EltvillerSonnenberg vineyard, was so beautifully balanced and drinkable that you wanted sip after sip and glass after glass... an endless flavor profile of apricots, pinapple and crême brulée... complex, spicy aromatic due to ample #botrytis but not a jot of bitterness... utter perfection! #EgonMauer #Riesling #Rheingau — 10 years ago
