Some background: Muller-Thurgau is a crossing between Riesling and Madeline Royale. It was once Germany's second most planted variety (as of @ 11 years ago). The variety suffered in status as the grape is easy to grow, and was often used in making plonk... but the Muller-Thurgau from Rainer Sauer is as elegant and mineral-driven as it is approachable.
On the nose, you get lime, sea spray and some grapefruit....which reflects on the palate. The wine also has a fine-grained beeswax-y texture, a tad like Chenin Blanc. Dry, with good lift and minerality. All in all, a terrific food wine. I paired this (with some hesitation) with Chorizo tacos from 4th St Market in Santa Ana, but man, did it go! I was worried about this wine not being able to handle the spice, but... beautiful pairing. It also went with their ceviche. All in all, quite good. 12% abv. — 8 years ago

Cheddar, boysenberries, dried cranberries.
Mmmm juice. Who got the juice?
Super drinkable. Lacks some complexity. Fruit bomb. But hey, I’m okay with that. If it tastes good, drink it. — 4 years ago
