Mußbacher Eselshaut Trockenbeerenauslese Rieslaner 1986

The color and texture of used motor oil, which reminded me of a PX, intensely sweet but with unbelievable acidity so it finishes on a tart note. A unique and remarkable wine. — 2 months ago

Rieslaner is new to me. Slightly more unctuous than other M-C Spates. — 10 months ago

GP in the blind, "Exotic aromatics, racy, juicy, salty. Could it be scheu?" Great job, GP!

I'm gonna give it a win for me on producer, even though I totally forgot the name "Muller-Catoir". Instead, I described the estate - in the Pfalz, famed for its wildcard varieties, especially rieslaner and scheu, and KP started making rieslaner and scheu because Julia fell in love with the varieties while interning there.

I guess it wasn't a hard guess once the variety was revealed - mainly by method of elimination since hardly any scheu enters Australia, short of the occasional Keller, and none of KP's 17' scheu got in. I think like KP, Muller-Catoir really nailed the 17' scheu trocken. Juicy, dense, spicy, and super energetic. So delicious right now, but I reckon it'll stand the test of time. — 5 years ago

Wow. Great.
Opulent, rich, verging to Beerenauslese, yet very well balanced and refreshing.

@delectable: it’s riesling Auslese, not rieslaner. Once it was in the directory, but today I couldn’t find it.. — 3 months ago
