2014. Light petrol/rubber interplay, with black lime, lime pith and smoky cherrywood, graphite, underripe pineapple, igneous rock dripping with lemon. Sweet pineapple, lemon essence infused into lemon marmalade and emerging profoundly drier. Lime reduction, candied kalamansa with an ethereal distillation of floral and mystery citrus admixture.

Very pretty apple blossom aromas that say "SPRING!" Very nicely balanced with a core of fine acidity--easy drinking, perfect for just sipping or enjoyed with any number of spicy dishes--refreshing! #DrHThanisch #VDP #Mosel #Riesling #mediumsweet — 8 years ago

A good classic #gamay with enough individuality to separate itself from Beaujolais. #vdp — 9 years ago

Volnay, Marsannay style floral (roses and hints of Geranium) better nose than palate. Hints of raw meat, high acidity but balanced with the ripe fruit. Long finish. One of the best #pinotnoir I’ve had from #Germany #vdp #vdpgrosselage #gg — 3 years ago

Straw hues; bouquet of white flowers, notes of honey, mango, and dried apricot on the nose; palate is moderated with lively acidity and delicate pear notes. Subtle effervescence. #mosel #germanwines #rieslingfix #maximingrünhauser #vdp #vonschubert — 5 years ago

#2006 was a wild year that featured a large array of glorious late-harvest, sweet wines that were enhanced by ample amounts of noble rot or #botrytis. This #Spätlese is really a mouth-filling #Auslese that lingers for seemingly minutes on end yet has a fine core of ripe acidity that provides the balance needed to age easily for another decade or so! #Auction #VDP #FritzHaag #Juffer #Sonnenuhr #14 #Riesling — 9 years ago

In an extremely difficult vintage where the grapes needed to be suddenly harvested over a 10 day period, making clean, late-picked wine was very challenging. However, this did not prevent Willi and son Christoph #Schaefer from crafting a beautiful, classy #Mosel #Riesling from their best vineyard--the #GraacherDomprobst.
Yes, it is slightly heavier and more concentrated than other cooler years, but with a kiss of #botrytis lining the contours of this almost-Auslese-level wine, the result is, well, magical and the wine utterly sings! The overall balance and structure are amazing and this super rarity auction bottle could keep easily another twenty years! #Auction #VDP — 9 years ago
