Mosel, Germany
Great nose. Huge slate and so mineral. Also a richness, lanolin as well. Lime zest. Love it. So complex. So fine and elegant on the palate with dazzling purity and freshness. Seems a bit closed but that doesn’t stop you from seeing how great this wine is. Long clean and intensely mineral finish.

Sep 5th, 2018Delicious and gulpable, as most of Herr Weber's wines. Not sure if it's the vintage, but I feel like this has a serious and phenolic component other bottles haven't. It's too young and even the herbal scents are hiding in the background along with the strawberries. And let's be honest, it's not lacking sulfur. But what's not hiding is the taste of delicious Saar acid and slate. Makes me want to go back to Krettnach, Oberemmel, and Wiltingen.

Tip-toes in with a little kumquat and lemon blossom on the nose, and then, WOW... delivers huge on taste. Beautiful and dry and elegant and great even acidity and lemony. This reminds me of the Morgex Prie Blanc from Ermes Pavese, but with some pineapple also layered in there, and more palate weight. Can't wait for this to age! Impressive purity of fruit. Five minute finish. Great viscosity and brightness.

Nice, refreshing. Really opened up in an hour. Nice minerality. Green apples, pears, flowers and fun. Good now, better in a year to settle down

May 26th, 2017The quality of this ~$15 German riesling is astounding! Lime and petrol and some florals on the nose set the stage for a big acid burst on the palate. The finish is long and full of lime and wet rocks. Buy this now and save it for the summer.

May 4th, 2016Truly a study in complexity that has nothing to do with fruit or richness.

Pure clean riesling, beguiling fruits, refreshing acid, touch of sweetness, perfect with shezhuan food

Apr 7th, 2015Because working in the vineyard in Saturday gives you a thirst that can only be quenched by Riesling.
