Light in color with a brown twinge. Quite perfumed. Sweet Pinot fruit. Better than their IDA Buntsandstein at this point in it’s evolution. Orange zest, strawberry, cranberry. Quite tart and kind of oaky. For some reason all the big boys of the 20‘ vintage do not come across as a top vintage for E & M. Good but they just don’t reach the heights of other vintage’s. — a month ago

Since Fass is offering the 2019 as a cellar release from the winery i went back to taste the vintage. 2018, 19, 20, 21 are all excellent and different. The 18‘ is more wild and rich, the 19‘ quite elegant and the 20‘big while the 21‘ is probably my favorite a combination of 19‘ & 20‘. The 19 is classic E&M i would drink the vintage and not keep it. Light and elegant, dark cherries, lime, chalk and this hard to define E&M signature best described as black forest meadow with thyme and other herbs. I could drink this by the bucket. — 2 years ago

E&M Weissburgunder goes feral beyond their trademark restrained wild spirit.

4 days of skins, it's copper tones, grippy, and full of acetone. And it's really good. Wild but grown up, responsible.

Expressively generous aromas loaded up with sour fruit and vinegar - naval orange, apricot, basil, and VA that tickles the back upper parts. Powerful long flavors too - sour apricot, pear, and sweet orange. Wonderful. — 4 years ago

Light in color. Very herbal. Otherwise quite close in the taste profile to the Buntsandstein of the same vintage. There is some cherry here, hint orange zest. Sweet Pinot fruit. Touch bitter. Again like the other E&M big boys. Not fully convinced. — a month ago

Upon opening unreadable, tart and harsh. Needs about 2-3 hours to open up. Super earthy. Tons of sediment. Very herbaceous. Black forest thyme. Black cherry. Elderberry galore. A tour de force really. Still a ton of tannins - to much? Give it 5 more years? A wine on the edge - tip of the spear. As some of these high end E & M‘s are. I like their wines but not fully convinced of the 2015‘s. Same as with the 2015 Burghs. The hype might not pan out. 24 hours later - this wine needs potentially 10 more years of age - hard to say - mellowed out - orange zest, port wine characteristics, cranberry - still a little rough but for the E&M fans a treat. — 6 months ago

Veramente un bel vino. 94-96.
Puro ed espressivo. Intenso ed elegante.
La miglior maturità riscontrata in tutti i vini assaggiati fin’ora.

Al naso espressivo con frutta e suolo. Al palato fine, molto naturale e altrettanto preciso e pulito. Finale caldo e avvolgente.
Lascia in bocca la natura del luogo.

Tasted the E&M line up at the winery. It was mind blowing!!!!!🤯. These are the best wines they ever made. Both the reds and the whites were great from top to bottom. Kirsch Sauerkirsche, red currant, tart.
Light and elegant hint herbs a stupido good wine. And for the price unbeatable. — 2 years ago

Wild and animalistic. For sure not something i would expect from a GC. The guests liked it but mostly i think for the GC label. The wine needs tons of air. But it tends to be overoxided before the limited flavors comes through. And i just can’t ignore that. For sure no match at all for an E&M big boy not even close. Pretty harsh tannins, orange rind and essentially almost no fruit. — 3 years ago

An extraordinary wine of beauty and at the same time wild - a wild beast really. Mostly raspberry notes, crushed marble, tart, cherry. And spice, touch cardamom. Herbs oregano and some thyme. Orange peel. Definitely whole clusters in this one. Needs 1 hour of air. But i would say drink now. A real treat for the E&M freaks. 2016 was across a terrific vintage for them. — 5 months ago

This is insane. The new Liaison from Sven’s new winery. Gorgeous nose that really recaptures that E and M magic from 2009 and 2010. Deep cherries. Black cherries. Galore. Lipstick like intensity. Smells like elite Nuits St. Georges. Mindblowing for how pure it is. The most unreal dark black cherry fruit you’ve ever smelled. Like AI levels of black cherry. Also a lovely chalky background and compelling minerality. Blackberry and blackberry flower as well. So juicy and engaging with terrific power and wow that black cherry and blackberry fruit. Unreal freshness and sap. Awesome concentration and intensity and super small berry fruit intensity. This is so insanely delicious and has terrific backbone and structure for mid term aging. Now with air the florals are starting to go crazy. Also tree bark and other non fruit aromas. Just so good. Wow the concentration is off the charts. This is utterly compelling and unlike anything I have ever had from Germany. Genius. — 2 years ago
