Mülheimer Sonnenlay Spätlese - Feinherb Riesling 2007

Beautiful chilled in 90 degree weather. Cantaloupe, melon, great mid palate, complex finish. Superb at 11 years. This is why Riesling is becoming my favorite white wine!!! — 8 years ago

Erdener Treppchen Spätlese Riesling 2015

This is an incredible Riesling. Although it is Kabinet, it has just a touch of residual sugar which makes it perfect for spicy foods. — 9 years ago

Licht-Stadtfeld Brauneberger Juffer Spätlese Riesling 2013

Makes you think with every sip. Sweet but not cloying; complex and minerally. Not getting a lot in the nose; touch of lemons. This stuff is excellent!! Thanks, Tom! Mom and Dad loved it too. Special wine. — 10 years ago

Not a Trocken. Straight Spatlese. They need to revise the caption.

Had a little bonus: after everyone went to bed I found there was a little left in the bottle!

Intriguing nose of white/pink flowers and a mechanic's greasy wrench. Wild fruit bomb finish. Immediate pleasure. The most rambunctious of them all. — 11 years ago

Mülheimer Sonnenlay Brut Riesling 2008

Ate w sushi at toro. Sweeter bubbly good for countering the weirdo spicy sushi we had. Probably too heavy for me to finish a full bottle lol

Phillip: "ripe orchard fruit and honey on the nose. Rich, sweet, little melon on the palate. Touch of toast and yeast on the finish w nectary sweetness"

The nose is quite volatile with a heavy dose of paint thinners (as we say in England), crisp green apples, pear drops and earth.

The palette has notes of saline, fresh apples and a nice gentle sweetness. The acid is soft at this point, so I consider this wine to be at its zenith. If you have em, drink them up.

Veldenzer Elisenberg Auslese Riesling 2003

Has evolved into very unctuous ripe, even baked, pineapple and creamy coconut, a little papaya and mango. Still maintains a slatey note but is much more to the mature tropical fruit qualities than I remember from tasting the wine when it was younger. Delicious! — 12 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!

So good. So damn good. So cheap. So damn cheap. Gorgeous nose of slate, lime zest, citrus pith and a foreboding sense of power. Palate is generous and elegant with so much fruit for a Spatlese Trocken yet with a firm mineral backbone and lipsmacking acidity. Terrific wine and value. Great complexity and mouthfeel and long tangy mineral finish. — 9 years ago

Mülheimer Sonnenlay Selection Riesling 2002

I call this: "The Little Riesling That Could." A beautifully aged Riesling showing button mushrooms at first, followed by faint petrol, then guava and citrus notes. A fuller-bodied Spatlese Trocken offering great complexity and length. — 11 years ago
