Schafer-Frohlich Felseneck Riesling GG 2022
$210.0098 points Stuart Pigott (JamesSuckling.com): “What amazing harmony this Nahe riesling GG has in spite of the vibrancy of its very racy acidity. Amazing spice and smoke in the nose with notes of pomelo and grapefruit on the concentrated and impeccably proportioned palate. Some grapefruit pith bitterness at the finish, but this just adds to […]

Schafer-Frohlich Stromberg Riesling GG 2022
$185.0097 points Stuart Pigott (JamesSuckling.com): “The nose of this astonishing riesling GG is like an entire spectrum of electric pastel colors.

Seehof Morstein Riesling Beerenauslese 2017 (375ml)
$90.00It is difficult to describe, in decent terms, my salivation over a wine that is not only fabulous, but in relative terms, a ridiculous bargain. Extremely complex, yellow fruits, fresh citrus and preserved citrus. Lucid and creamy, the fruit pillowed if you like by soft, long acidity. Considering this is from Morstein, this is so […]

Seehof Westhofener Morstein Alte Reben Riesling 2018
$75.00Out of Stock
Talk about a giant killer. Rheinhessen’s Morstein makes one of the broadest, densest Rieslings on the planet, and Seehof’s rendition is one of the best. More elegant in style, but wanting for nothing. Citrus, zest, minerals, dried herbs, faint notes of smoke, grapefruit and melon. Bright. Juicy, concentrated and full of tension with ripe, pulpy […]

Seehof Morstein Riesling Kabinett 2022
$40.00Sourced from one of the top, limestone-laden vineyards in Rheinhessen, Seehof’s Morstein is fine, dry Riesling. Shimmering a striking golden yellow, the nose benefits from a bit of breathing time to show its full potential of lime blossom, sage, candied ginger, and petrol tones. On the palate, this Morstein is dark and brooding, but balanced […]

Weiser-Kunstler Gaispfad “Grosse Eule” Riesling 2021
$100.00The 2020er Ellergrub, as it is referred to on the consumer label (the reference to Grosse Eule is left for the back label), has a restrained yet beautiful nose of minty herbs, thyme, yellow flowers, smoke, lozenge, spices, and blackberry. The wine proves slightly juicy and creamy on the mid-palate, yet there is quite some […]

Carl Loewen Riesling ‘Alte Reben’ 2021
$45.00From 50-70 year old vines, rooted in Devonian slate. Lime zest, fresh earth, minerals, white cherry and blackcurrant. Loewen’s wines possess that rare combination succulence, breadth and richness, tensioned by intense acidity and mineral presence. There is a hint of sweetness, essentially a feinherb, not that it’s labelled as such, and the balance is impeccable. […]

Rings Kallstadter Steinacker Pinot Noir 2020

After a short maceration period, the mash ferments spontaneously with natural yeasts. Matured in new and used barriques, filled unfiltered.

Seehof Westhofener Kirchspiel Riesling 2018
$55.00A great vineyard, Kirchspiel for me is defined by a lavish richness, without the driving power and textured structure of Morstein. Ripe lime, grapefruit, tangerine, cherry, preserved lemon and star jasmine. Pure and translucent, you can almost feel, the perfect roundness of ripe grapes. Full bodied, lavish of course, juicy and bright. Soft acids, folded […]

Weiser-Kunstler Trabener Gaispfad Riesling 2018
$85.00Generally preferring sweeter styled Mosel wines, it’s always a thrill to love the unexpected. Immensely complex, deep and brooding with aromas of gooseberry, kiwi, lime, ruby grapefruit, spring jasmine smoke and earth. Absorbing and immense, it’s hard to grasp the sheer depth and breadth of this wine, yet without heaviness or unnecessary structure. Silkily textured, […]
