2011 is still a baby, showing primary varietal character atop a dry, racy, mineral frame. 2005 is mature, no longer showing any Muscat character, just the Goldert minerality with attractive oxidative development (but seems to be higher RS)

Jun 23rd, 2018Exceptional example of why muscat is considered a noble grape in Alsace and allowed to be a grand Cru when planned in the right site (like this one). Elegant, perfectly balanced. Pronounced aromas but bone dry with great finesse. Profits from a few years in bottle. I'm longing for some Münster right now!

Find of the night for some. Surprisingly alive for a 20 year muscat but still too grapey for me.

A Muscat very classy, well balanced, no aromatic exuberant with exotic notes - it is intense and racy with bright and lingering acidity 👏😋

Study material, the usual notes of preserved stone and citrus fruit mixed with some tropical fruit lychee is a major player here, on the palate a whole new game the dominance of the citrus is demarcated by firm the acidity levels.
