Wet stones & cherries. Big- framed. Still very primary; has a long road ahead. Impressive and powerful, though. #nahe #riesling #emrichschönleber — 9 years ago

Here it is! One of the two #EmrichSchönleber #GrossesGewächs wines we released this month. A wine of tremendous finesse and complexity that is the more feminine in style of this fantastic winery's two main sites. The 2014s are very nicely structured and so crystal clear. They will benefit greatly from further bottle age and decanting prior to serving. #Frühlingsplätzchen #Riesling #GG #trocken #dry #Nahe — 10 years ago

The #2013 "#Mineral" from #EmrichSchönleber is an absolutely high-strung, vibrant wine that drinks well now but could still use a few more years in bottle to really fill out. If you like #dry, flinty whites with your shellfish, especially oysters, this is your wine! #Nahe #Riesling

Let us not forget that this noble #Nahe estate also lays claim to the production of fantastic fruity wines too... Sourced entirely from the #Frühlingsplätzchen vineyard, it truly says "SPRING" with every sip... classic summertime easy-drinking #Riesling. PROST! #EmrichSchönleber #Monzingen #kabinett #2013 — 11 years ago

In any given year, we are spoiled many times over by the amazing treasures we are blessed to able to experience, but every now and then we open an older bottle that flattens us. This was one on them:
Deep amber, reddish hue with a mind-blowing aroma of apricot/caramel extract, aged apple blossom honey, baked nectarine and pineapple...intensely concentrated...supported by a fine core of bright acidity. As near perfection as any wine could ever hope to be...is there another grape varietal on earth that could yield such a wine at forty years of age from a half bottle??? #emrichschönleber

We are huge fans of this vintage and huge fans of this glorious #wine--but be patient--it's a sleeping giant that needs at least another 3 years bottle age plus decanting! #GermanWineSociety — 11 years ago

Rich, corpulent, plush...yet taut and electric. Cherries, yellow fruits. Powerful and typical Nahe minerality. Exuberant and refined at the same time. One of the best '15s I've tasted. #nahe #emrichschönleber #riesling — 10 years ago

Named after the cranes which migrate south annually and hover above these vineyards to catch the upward currents on warm afternoons. Previously named the #Halenberg #Riesling #trocken, this wine actually comes from a steep upper portion of the "#Halenberg" vineyard and tends to be very #mineral in character, due to the great amount of gray #slate in the soil. A pure, mineral, beautifully crafted dry Riesling. #EmrichSchönleber #Halgans #Riesling #trocken — 10 years ago

#Riesling from our #Schönleber friends... off-dry but with such pronounced acidity profile the overall impression is much drier... #mineral notes abound...another crystal clear vibrant beauty! #EmrichSchönleber #2013 #Lenz #Nahe — 11 years ago

Another monumental #GG from this blue slate-based vineyard... power, depth, concentration and tremendous structure from its core of supportive, ripe acidity... Lay it down for at least 3-5 years... In any case be sure to double decant as it currently needs plenty of air. #emrichschönleber #riesling #halenberg #2013 — 11 years ago

Again, #EmrichSchönleber wins my vote for star of the night. Certainly not a shy wine and incredibly well priced. — 11 years ago

What an amazing estate that can produce such sensational dry #wine yet still come up with some of Germany's most perfectly balanced fruity-style, classic #Rieslings as well--I could have downed the whole bottle myself--couldn't get enough!!! #GermanWineSociety — 11 years ago

Here's the Big Daddy of the #EmrichSchönleber estate and as one taster recently commented..."like liquid rocks" due to the high #slate content in the vineyard, which gives the wine its distinctive #mineral character. Again, this wine will benefit tremendously from not only further bottle aging, but also decanting or even double decanting prior to serving. #Halenberg #Riesling #GrossesGewächs #dry #trocken #Nahe

Derived from younger vines of the greater "#Halenberg"
vineyard and drinking perfectly after a couple of years in bottle! #EmrichSchönleber #Mineral #Riesling #trocken — 10 years ago

Huge fruit! Lighter-bodied than one might expect of an #Auslese *** - elegant, balanced, stunning. #EmrichSchönleber just doesn't disappoint. #2003 #Frühlingsplätzchen #Riesling #Auction — 11 years ago

Next to the more opulent #ClemensBusch #Falkenlay this gorgeous #Frühlingsplätzchen seemed restrained and almost shy like the cute little girl at the party that no one asks to dance.
Make no mistake...this is a real "Sleeping Beauty"! #EmrichSchönleber #2012 #grossegewächs #Riesling #Nahe — 11 years ago

A sheer delight, loaded with mineral notes and beautifully focussed with bright, clean acidity... drink now with decanting or hold it for 2-3 years longer. #emrichschönleber #frühlingsplätzchen #trocken #riesling #2013 — 11 years ago

My personal favourite of the dry #Riesling flight tonight. The complex palate nicely echoes the nose and ends on a subtle mineral note. Well worth keeping. — 11 years ago
