Yahoo. No weight at all. Some petrol that blows off and gives way to classic Morstein mineral core and electric fruits. — 6 years ago

Great, dry aromatic white for the springtime! White flowers, citrus aromas. Fresh oranges and nice acid. Some dairy notes too. Excellent with my salmon too. #petaluma #petalumawindgap — 10 years ago

In the presence of the 17' Schönleber AdL, there should not have been another riesling that outclassed it during the night... But then this appeared. Young as it may be, KP's Hipping approaches perfection. Dumbfounding!
I think Jean and David at MFW described this perfectly, so I'll just leave it here:
This 2017er Niersteiner Hipping GG delivers a beautiful nose where reductive elements including minty herbs, smoke, bacon and needle provide the frame for some glorious scents of grapefruit, tangerine, candied lime, fresh almond and coconut. The wine has the purity and lightness of mountain water yet its complexity and density on the mid-palate are just stunning. One can feel the intensity from the high levels of dry extracts but these are magnificently wrapped into spicy and salty elements. The length and impact in the finish are stunning. The after-taste seems to last for minutes. The wine is almost painfully dry at this stage, but the sheer freshness, intensity and complexity are simply breathtaking. This grandiose expression of dry Riesling may well turn into wine perfection in a decade: It is THAT impressive! — 6 years ago

Aroma of honey, oak, and lime. Taste of tangerines, a touch of bitterness and mineral. Smooth and round with a hint of sweetness. Lingering bitterness and alcohol show up in the aftertaste. — 10 years ago
This wine is impossible. Thor's barbells balanced on a tightrope with a dancing bear on the other end. Such power. Such grace. Intoxicating, concentrated peach and nectarine sorbet are matched with lime and tangerine sour rock candy. White tea, jasmine, and honeysuckle flowers effuse. Everything is staggeringly intense, but the wine really kicks into 5th gear when the heady saffron and porcini Botrytis-driven aromatics hit. I don't even care that I'm mixing metaphors, but it's a peacock in full show. Take a sip and watch the nuclear-powered laser of the wine's acid seamlessly resolve the lush texture given by the wine's hundreds of grams of residual sugar. I had no idea TBA could have a dry finish, but here we are. I would love to see a tech sheet for this wine. One of the most unbelievable, amazing wines I've ever tried. — 10 years ago
