a singularly unique Riesling from an organic, VDP producer. wasn't able to find vinification details, but i'm almost certain this is open barrel fermented and raised in used oak. it's quite luscious, but with that inimitable tartaric cut that Riesling does like no other. dripping with marzipan, butter, and crushed peaches. #drinkmoreriesling #rheinheissen #germany #riesling — 9 years ago

VDP auction bottling. Hard to describe this one as its weightless and in complete balance. There's no hard edges anywhere, but still one of the most hardcore wines that I've ever tasted. The acid level tips the scales and its tart citrusy profile does include some tropical fruits but this this wine is all about its acid drive and nervous minerality. Unique. — 10 years ago

Oliver #Haag nobly follows in his father Wilhelm's footsteps with a glorious #Spätlese that hammered down at €53 for 750ml, €151 for magnum and €360 for DM. Also a killer Auslese LGK went for €335 for 750ml & €151 for 375ml & €800 for DM--BRAVO! #VDP #Auction — 11 years ago

Simple VdP Viognier, with malolactic coming thru along with almonds and apricot - more restrained than Condrieu — 10 years ago

Regardless of vintage Willi & Christoph #Schaefer work brilliantly with whatever Mother Nature gives them and in 2013 it was very small amounts but very high quality!
The #Spätlese cleared €41 for 750ml & €132 for #magnum with the #Auslese coming in at €150 for 750ml & €78 for 375ml & €300 for 1.5L - always fair and square! #VDP #Auction — 11 years ago

Vdp d'òc Domaine d'Aigues Belles, cuvée Nicole 2009. Joli vin mais s'alcoolise et se 'décharne' avec les ans. Un peu tard... — 12 years ago
