GL Trimbach Riesling tasting 10/25/17. All wines are whole cluster and steel or old fuder. This newly acquired. Native yeasts unless needed. One racking. Same process for all. Explosive floral and grapefruit nose and excellent balanced body and complexity on palate and beautiful finish. Yum. The first granite soil rather than limestone. Inaugural vintage. Only 1.6 hectre. Focus and energy. — 8 years ago

Egon Müller

Scharzhofberger Riesling 1966

A real curiosity and undoubtedly as Unicorn as it gets. 1966 vintage, so prior to 1971 German wine law. No Pradikat designation on label. Grape variety, Riesling, stated on label. Fuder# 73. Alcohol was 10.5% and may possibly be Trocken(Egon III did produce some Trocken fuders during this era)? Otherwise a QBA(but labeled as Sharzhofberg and not Sharzhof?), or even a Kabinett? Will be inquiring with Mr. Muller. In fantastic shape and originating from a notable, Bay Area Collector. The freshness was sensational. — 9 years ago

GW tasting 9/28/16. Introduced in 1990. Ancestor who said no need for sulfur. Best plot right in front of house called the Rock. Nose that's complex with more prominent pepper notes. Wine doesn't go into fuder and direct into barrels. Texture and body richer and firmer structure and minerals and acids. Yummy. — 9 years ago

Scharzhofberger Kabinett Riesling 2014

AP# 2....same fuder tasted chez Muller during April 2015. All about essence and not impact.
"THE sweet spot of the 2014 vintage are the Kabinett wines made from clean grapes. These wines have a lightness not seen in two decades and proved a return to the great Kabinett and Spätlese of the 1990s!" http://www.moselfinewines.com/vintage-2014-kabinett-highlights.php

Brauneberger Juffer Kabinett Trocken Riesling 2016

Delectable Wine
9.0

While the corresponding “Fuder 4” bottling was picked at the lowest must weight of any Richter 2016, this “regular” bottling from the same Einzellage reflects (at 84 Oechsle) the highest-must-weight Kabinett of the present collection. The flavors and structure of the two wines are correspondingly disparate. Pineapple and papaya dominate on the nose as well as on a subtly creamy, glycerol-rich palate. This finishes with admirable persistence and succulent satisfaction if nowhere near the distinguished clarity, striking levity or dynamic of the corresponding “Fuder 4.” (David Schildknecht, Vinous, January 2018) — 7 years ago

GW tasting 9/28/16. Nose that's classic Bordeaux woodiness and earthiness. Hints of that peppery now and minerals. Carries through to palate. Like a younger Sociando Mallet. Long good finish. Interesting profile. Indeed still lively. Harvest by hand destem and fermentation in concrete vat starting straight away. Since 70. Cap forms quickly. Insert 2 cm of fresh stem right under vat like a screen to prevent cap boiling over. This apparently reduces tannins to be very fine and not obvious. So no oxygen contact during this. No pump over or punch down. All natural. No sulfur during this. 1 year in large fuder (100 years old!). Then 2 years in old barrels (never cleaned!). No new oak. — 9 years ago

Turris 2012 by Niepoort - a pure treat, a brilliant future even if still young 😃 made from an old vineyard with more than 130 years without any pruning method, facing south, in Cima Corgo, Douro.
The wine aged for 15 months in barrels (Fuder) with more than 60 years, carefully brought from Mosel, Germany
