Niedermenninger Herrenberg Spätlese Riesling 2016

Most balanced, but least interesting of the cuvées. Still a great expression of true Mosel Riesling. — 9 years ago

That looks like the perfect glass on a Indian Summer afternoon in Somoma Co.

Bring on the Saar slate. The perfect "exhausted-after-a-long-week," stay at home and order Chinese bottle of Auslese. So light on its feet, definitely more in Spatlese territory by the standards of most other producers... — 13 years ago

Niedermenninger Sonnenberg Trocken Red Wine 2015

Always love these reds by HF. Whites are truly lightning rods but the reds are just as nuanced with laser beam acids. Always feel guilty about drinking these wines because HF, which I believe initially started in 1989 have no back vintages. I would love to find some older HF wines though — 8 years ago

Oberemmler Karslberg Kabinett Riesling 2016

Marc On
9.2

Clear, very pale almost water like. Very shy nose with withdrawn aromas of pomelo, grapefruit, white stone fruit, lemon zest and a strange, fresh goat cheese component which disturbs this clean & fresh picture of the nose a bit. On the palate this Kabinett shows an incredible tension, freshness and wonderful (high), vibrant, balanced acidity. The wine acts on a very dry level. Its an perfect Aperitif. Unbelievable salty finish.
There is quite a little hype in the German wine scene about these wines and already after one bottle I´m a fan too. Very focused, quite and drinkable stuff. Not a "in your face" wine. Elegance is the key-word here.
