Wiebelsberg Riesling 2021

What a gorgeous Riesling. Nose has citrus peel, apple, crushed rock. The palate is bright and crisp, loads of zingy acidity, but with ample fruit, it doesn’t seem too severe or lean. What excellent balance. Thanks to my brother Angelo for giving me this one!

Pewsey Vale Vineyard

Museum Reserve The Contours Riesling 2015

This keeps impressing, easily comparable to Trimach Cuvee Frederic Emile. Heavy petrol with citrus, but not as much complexity as other Aussie Rieslings. Nice finish but not particularly lengthy. — 3 years ago

Honey sweetness that's not overpowering, a round pleasing body with low acidity, perfect for dessert pairing or alone. — 4 years ago

Eguisheim Alsace Pinot Noir 1550

There’s depth and “cut” to it that invites more comparisons to its Burgundy cousins than its German ones, so give it 30 minutes or so in a decanter before diving in: Serve it at a cool 60 degrees in Burgundy stems and you’ve got one of the most versatile reds for food one could possibly ask for. This will sing with a wide range of proteins, from salmon all the way up to beef, but I can’t resist an old-school Alsatian pairing—tarte flambée. Smoky bacon, creamy cheese, crisp crust…that’ll work for me! Enjoy! — 5 years ago

Brandluft Riesling 2021

A crisp and zesty dry Riesling that perfect for casual summer sipping. Fresh nose has cracked stones, a slight herbal thing, and bruised green apple fruit. In the mouth it’s lively and zingy, bone dry, and quite refreshing. Thanks to my brother Angelo for this one.

UPDATE: On night 2, the fruit seems more vibrant and deeper. Upping from 8.8 to 8.9.

Grand Cru Zotzenberg Gewürztraminer 2017

Last bottle of this. Still drinking beautifully. Nose has lychee, pear syrup, wet river stones, and lilies. In the mouth it’s round and broad, and also slightly sweet, but it’s all in balance due to nice minerality and a little bitter note. Love the balance on this. — 3 years ago

@Rene Van De Beek Nee. Mooie wijn, maar te hoog in zuren vonden verschillende proevers. En stond naast de geweldige 2017 Wagner Stempel GG Heerkretz 😏

Zotzenberg Riesling 2018

This is your #riesling if you’re not a fan of the petrol / diesel notes, once this has had a chance to breathe a bit. While I don’t mind those, this is a nice alternative terroir expression - subtle floral and peach notes on nose. @Kurt Schuster is spot on with the crystalline descriptor. The palate is more about the luscious fruit texture backed by sturdy acidity and a touch of RS rather than a lot of complexity. Where else can you get #grandcru #alsaceriesling other than #costco for ~$18? — 3 years ago
