Apples & white peaches with lemon peel and pink grapefruit plus some herby naphthalene. Elegant and quite complex with good quality of fruit and great precision. Mid weight with a mineral touch towards the end. A fine wine.
Spontaneous fermentation in lege, used wood. — 8 years ago

Full and peculiar captivating aromatics. I very rarely get vegetal aromas from Riesling but this one is loaded with them. First and foremost, ripe green bell peppers. On the palate it’s all upfront, delicious, yellow fruits and late summer sunshine. Second comes the flint and slate propelling the long, satisfying finish. — 7 months ago

Hmmmm (Reisling cooing sound): high quality QbA from Nahe with that Nahe high toned minerality with JUST an impression of sweetness. Star fruit, underripe Cantaloupe, dried ginger. Just a delight, and for about 17$ even more so. — 5 years ago

Distinctive flavor, lots of tennis ball on the nose and a very acidic start with a dry finish. Some earthiness and mineral that makes it distinct from other Rieslings. — 7 years ago

04 nahe seems to be working well these days! Tons of life ahead. Lots of viscosity and intensity with apricot and nectarine balancing the petrol. Perfect with foil gras. On a side note the kabinett was over the hill but the spatlese is rocking hard! — 9 years ago

2015. By the time we added this delicious Burgundy to the table while we were still enjoying the Diel Extra Brut Sekt and the R. Lopez de Heredia Vina Tondonia Gran Reserva Rosato it created a perfect spectrum of colors and flavors to match the dishes prepared by the Boiler Room chefs. A great way to usher in the New Year! — 2 years ago

This was my favourite in a very interesting blind tasting involving 17' rieslings from 4 different German regions - Nahe, Rheinhessen, Rheingau, and Pfalz. The wines were hauntingly similar at the start, but started to reveal themselves when left to their own devices. The tasting reinforced my belief that German rieslings best show their terrior aged or post-ferment, unsulphured and straight from the tank/barrel.

Regardless, I kept coming back to this wine. It was perhaps the most open of the lot. I guess the vineyard does help here, given the typical opulence of Goldloch - something I picked up while helping Caroline at Diel. The nose definitely shows some ripeness, with apricots and quince dominating, but pulled back with aromas of fresh herbs. The palate's fleshy and salty, with some spicy intrigue, oily texture, and a driven acidity. It's so drinkable at the moment.

NB: I think I need to pay a little more attention to JB Schafer after this. I gotta admit, I might have gravitated towards the Wagner-Stempel if it wasn't a blind. JB Schafer doesn't have the rep yet, espeically given how little their kabi sold for in the last VDP auctions, but I reckon riesling drinkers will be caught off guard in the future if this winery continues in this trajectory. — 7 years ago
