Ürziger Würzgarten Auslese Riesling *** 2018

Upon opening there's the usual Riesling petroleum nose, but this cleared off quickly. This left a pineapple and apricot nose. And wow. Juicy pineapple and lemon, super fresh and juicy, and so smooth. This is gorgeous! Note: After drinking this for a bit we determined it was a little too sweet. We understood it was a late harvest wine so it is supposed to be sweet, so this is a personal preference. — 3 years ago

Ürziger Würzgarten Auslese Riesling ** 2012

Light golden color! Pine apple, petrol, apple. Paired so well with Mathijs’ home made gado gado soup! (The soup scored 10/10!) — 5 years ago

Bernkasteler Badstube Kabinett Riesling 1998

Drinking up my stock of these as the previous bottles were past their prime. But my final one goes out with life still in it! Apple, pear, ripe and juicy lemon, maybe even a little pineapple on the long finish. — 7 years ago

Dinner 11/29/17 with turkey pie and other dishes. Had to open two bottles! Popular with the kids! Again perfect example of old Riesling aged at the vineyard cellar all these years. Must be that freshness from the living molds! — 5 years ago

I’ve said it once, I’ve said it many times. There is no greater wine value in the world than well-aged Mosel Riesling. Crystalline asian pear, mandarins and river water mixed with a hint of petrol. Killlllller. — 6 years ago

Erdener Treppchen Riesling Kabinett 2016

Vintage 2016 | Archetypical Riesling kabinett that performs absolutely great now. Multi layered smell with honey, peach, apricot, butter chatter, lots of minerals. Very vivid taste with tingling acids that give it tension. Dangerously easy to drink. But will give no problem even if you drink a bottle, only 9% alcohol. Love this exciting Mosel. It gained extra depth with two years cellar since I last drank it | Paired with a vegan Chinese vegetable dish from the wok. — 3 years ago

Sonnentropfen Wachenheimer trocken Riesling 2018

Surprisingly energetic and sharp for a Pfalz Riesling with steely, spicy lemons and a whiff of peach in the background. Great juiciness & purity, this has the drinkability if a clear mountain spring. Brilliant for sipping solo, but will hold its ground with light food. A cracker entry level wine & brilliant value! — 5 years ago
