I actually love German Pinot Noir, but this for whatever reason was a little bit over extracted. And a little bit tight. I didn’t like it so much. It was nice but not excellent. #spätburgunder #german #pinotnoir — 12 days ago

Felix Morstein Spätburgunder 2012

This fabulous #Pinot dedicated to their eldest son, #Felix, is one of the finest examples of #German #Spätburgunder I've encountered and served from a rare 3 liter double #magnum it really developed and impressed us all in the glass... a mere 120 bottles of the 2013 were auctioned off on the 18th of September. #Keller #Morstein #Felix #PinotNoir #Rheinhessen — 10 years ago

Winkeler Jesuitengarten Cabinet Spätlese Riesling 1969

I got this old bottle at a #German #auction about 15 years ago and, on a whim, decided to serve it recently with a shrimp and avocado salad under a delicate, yet rather simple oil and vinegar dressing... the result was sublime as the nearly fifty-year-old bottle was uncannily fresh... a marvelous foil to the sharper, more savory dressing. Yes, it still had some residual sugar and that was a good thing as was the excellent core of ripe acidity that played a strong roll in the wine's remarkable balance--BRAVO! #1969 #JacobHamm #Winkeler #Jesuitengarten #Riesling #Cabinet #Spätlese — 10 years ago

Tons of flavor in this nice German Reisling. A little more on the sweeter side but still enjoyable. Perfect for BBQ, Picnics, or whatever you wish. #german #reisling — 10 years ago

Freiherr Langwerth von Simmern

Rauenthaler Rheingau Kabinett Riesling 1997

The #German #dry wine industry has learned a lot in the past two decades and one aspect is how to deal with #Rieslings innately high acidity. #1997 was a very fine year throughout the various regions, but this is drying out and was clearly not intended for long-term aging in excess of 10 years.
It made a decent partner to food, but not as a straight sipping wine. A modest amount of residual sugar would have created a more balanced wine.

Electric on the nose!
Palate of plums, ripe cherries, subtle purple flowers, and tertiary characteristics of earth.
Very interesting! It almost tastes French!

Hipping Probeflasche Kabinett Riesling 2015

In many ways this was the wine of the night...a perfect expression of what truly great #German #Riesling is all about: fruit, acidity, ripeness, minerality all rolled into one...never mind that #PrincessCharlotte of England and I share the same birthday of May 2nd, but more importantly this is very serious wine to lay down for my daughter, Maria Katharina, who arrived a few months later! #Keller #Hipping #Riesling #Kabinett — 10 years ago

#2009 was a spectacular year for #dry #German #Rieslings and the #Spreitzer brothers made an #OestricherLenchen that lives up to this vintage's reputation. Creamy, silky, mouth-coating concentration with a fine core of ripe acidity to support its innate opulence--well done! #erstegewachs #GG #Rheingau — 10 years ago
