My new favorite Austrian wine! Had the Josephine a while back but we did not become great friends. Anatasius, however, is playful, fruitful, and slightly bubbly. Made a new friend. — 7 months ago
Another Grand Cru from my favorite Alsacian producer.
Poura yellow, I get canary melon, botrytis honey comb, passion fruit, lychee.
Just slightly off dry, the acids have a mustard like quality. (the area is surrounded by mustard fields and I swear that I can smell and/or taste mustard greens/flowers in many wines of Berckem). Follows up with roasted apple flavors, and an incredible clean but long finish.
I wish I could open a bottle of this every night. — 2 years ago
Needs a 30 minute decant.
Nose: exquisite yellow flowers. Elenant richness. Lemon oil. But so precise and dense. Utterly insane.
Palate. Immediate mineral hit. Almost spicy. Elegantly rich. Really good. Long. Dense. Wall of flavor. Lemon peel. Utter magic on the palate.
Internal aromatics are INSANE. Just perfection.

Nice complexity of aromas. — 2 years ago
Solid dry Mosel Spatlese Riesling. Balanced citrus, slate, and petrol aromas. Heavy mouth feel. Not as complex as others I've had recently, but I'm biased having sampled many reserve and Alsatian grand crus. — 3 months ago

Palate: perfect. Minerals. Acid. Elegant stone fruits.
