Hofgut Falkenstein Altenberg Riesling Spatlese Trocken 2020

The faintest of pink colour, with beeswax, grapefruit, juniper, mint, tarragon, red delicious apple, lime zest and frangipani. Intense but not obtuse. Coiled, tense, vivid and cool flavours, including gooseberry, kiwifruit, savoury spice, tonic-like and pickled vine leaf. So bracing […]

Clemens Busch Marienburg Fahrlay Grosses Gewächs 2020
$160.0097 Points – “Smelling this is like looking into a deep abyss, and someone unfamiliar with intensely mineral dry riesling might feel a bit of vertigo. However, these grapefruit, white-tea and wild-herb aromas really excite us. On the sleek palate this is super-focused with a terrific tannin structure that beautifully matches the crystalline quality on […]

Clemens Busch Riesling Vom Grauen Schiefer 2019
$75.00Intense, with all the breadth, power and grandeur we have come to associate with Clemens Busch. Full bodied, with citrus, stone fruits, lemon zest, smoke, nettles a mineral puckering close.

Peter Lauer Ayler Riesling Fass 25 2020
$55.00The most angular of Peter Lauer’s wines, but not lacking in intensity or interest. Notes of lemon, grapefruit, mandarin, spring jasmine, lavender wood, nettles and mint. Direct attack on the palate, very fine and tensile. Terrific poise and power, with a saline note and that spicy grip on the close. Elegant, refreshing style, nothing forced. […]

Hofgut Falkenstein Niedermenniger Riesling Kabinett ‘Feinherb’ 2020
$60.00Intense and full of character with notes of white flowers, stone fruits, citrus, spice, cherry and blackcurrant. Intense and full of presence, but with a lightness of touch. The spice is more elevated on the palate (clove) and although off-dry, feels drier for all that. Scintillating and mineral as you so often find with Falkenstein, […]

Peter Lauer Ayler Riesling Fass 6 Senior 2020
$55.00A richer feinherb than most of us would, with greater depth and texture than most of us would be used to. Medium to full bodied, rippling with juicy ripe fruits, saltbush, mint and lemon preserve. Just off-dry, the depth of the palate is offset by subtle sweetness and the Saar’s rapier acidity. Remarkable wine. Waters […]

Peter Lauer Riesling Fass 2 Maceration 2018
$55.00Three weeks maceration on the skins has produced this superb dry tasting wine – red apple skin on the nose with brightness and verve. In the mouth it is broad and tactile, you sense the grip from the skins maceration but it is very fine. The finish is long pure and clear, a super and […]

Carl Loewen Riesling ‘1896’ 2021
$175.00This is beautiful to drink now, but those things which really make it stand out in the crowd are only just beginning to reveal themselves. With every swirl of the glass the ripe peach and apricot aromas expand until there’s a great cloud of them. Staggering concentration is packed into a rather sleek frame, but […]

Weiser-Kunstler Steffensberg “im Lowenbaum” Riesling 2020
$65.00Dry Mosel riesling at it’s incomparable best. Expressive sensual and exotic notes of mustard seed, yellow peach, kiwifruit, cherry, smoke, fresh compost and grapefruit. Packed with flavour, yet light as a feather. Where else could decadence be married to such a lightness of touch. Silky and ripe with blackcurrant, lavender soap, fennel, green peppercorns, pawpaw […]

Just 11.5% alcohol.” Stephan Reinhardt, The Wine Advocate 91 Points/Outstanding – “The 2020er Riesling vom grauen Schiefer, as it is referred to […]

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, […]
