- Zilliken Riesling Qba Butterfly 2011 Product #26072 (In Stock)
-
-
We recently revisited this estate and were impressed by the quality of all their wines, but with the medium-dry Butterfly most of all. It opens with aromas of peaches, Meyer lemon, and white flowers, and on the palate strikes just the right balance of sweetness and zingy acidity. A winner with spicy sausages and charcuterie!
- Monchhof Riesling Spatlese Mosel Slate 2011 Product #26413 (In Stock)
-
-
Another terrific vintage for this old-school Mosel producer, Robert Eymael. As you'd expect from a wine called "Slate", this delivers loads of stone and mineral flavors over ripe pear and Fuji apple fruit. Definitely spatelese weight and richness here, but with vibrant, almost crunch, acidity and minerality on the long, savory, finish.
- JJ Prum Riesling Kabinett 2011 Product #26711 (In Stock)
-
-
Another fine release from the master of the Mosel. Decant or leave open for an hour to let the youthful sulfur blow off.
"This features ripe lime and slate notes on an elegant frame, with lively hints of white chocolate and vanilla. The rich finish of peaches and cream is accented by light, smoky notes. Drink now through 2020."Wine Spectator 90 points
- Kesselstatt Riesling Kabinett Piesporter Goldtropfchen 2010 Product #26219 (In Stock)
-
-
Definitely a fuller, richer Kabinett, but delicious nonetheless! This fantastic Riesling from a family-owned estate that dates back to the 14th century, and one of the Mosel's most famous sites, opens with aromas of marzipan, white flowers, lemon curd, and fresh peaches. On the palate it has that lovely, crackling acidity you'd expect in a Kabinett, especially from the 2010 vintage, but the finish shows a bit more richness than other producers, and a delicious note of gooey marshmallow. A wonderful foil for pungent cheese or spicy food, or just as an afternoon sipper. Yum!
