Wow. What a showing. Sick nose. Deeply floral, spicey and slatey. Classic Huhnerberg. Apricot. Peach pit. So precise. 16 is so good at Müllen. Palate is so complete, complex and precise. Terrific fruit and depth, but man mineral and deeply acidic but sweet resonant acids. This is just incredible today. — 2 years ago
Beautiful purity of expression here. Dark cherries, blackberries, herbs on the nose upfront with floral notes opening up with some time. Lifted acidity throughout that balances the dark blue and black fruit notes in a way that’s so unique. Sick. Will benefit from aging but already a powerhouse - such a burgundian wine. — 2 years ago
Funky on the nose; hits you with subtle notes of gorgonzola or blue cheese, and green tomatoes. Viscous texture, but does not coat your mouth. Flavors of plum, pear, and nectarine. Crisp and acidic on the finish. Awesome wine. — 3 years ago
Tasted blind. My guesses were around Fedellos do Couto and Matassa, but with influence from Sextant. Entry-level funky-style wine. Slightly restrained and simple in the nose with notes of sweet cherry, cranberry and spoiled jam. But it pays well in the taste. Fizzy at the beginning, salty with flavours of spoiled strawberry-cranberry jam but with the right volume and evolution based on jamminess. I would take it on a picnic, chill a little bit, and then chill together with a bottle or two of this wine. — 2 years ago
Saffron from botrytis. So complex. Pink peppercorns. Smells almost dry. Insane minerality. Wow. We are in BA territory. So rich and unctuous. Fruit density without the viscosity of a BA. Honey. Honeydew melon. Sick inner mouth aromas. Very sweet now and will come Into better balance. Huge acids. Decadence defined. Szechuan peppercorns run throughout. Unreal. — 3 years ago

Sick nose of amazingly vivid cherries, spice., chestnuts, leather and decayed leaves. Bright and harmonious. Palate is juicy with very fine tannins and lively cherry skin fruit on the attack and cherry juice on the finish. Really energetic and terrific ripe and velvety tannins. So pure and sappy. Long finish. Air will make this better but pretty awesome now. — 3 months ago
