Nostel is from Kröver Kirchlay. Martin thinks “Nostel” is the best vinyard in the Kirchlay. I do not disagree. This is a startling wine. Nose smells like a fruity Auslese. But this wine is bone dry. Nose has creaminess, citrus, kumquat, tangelo, green tea and unreal minerals, I mean just sweeping, epic, minerals. So clean. Clarity is 9.9 here. Just amazing. Wow! What insane inner mouth perfume here. Just incredible purity and balance then the finish gets super pithy with all types of ripe citrus accented by swarming minerality. This is super elegant but also big boned at the same time and also super skeletal. Wow what flow this wine has then gets super pithy and grippy on the finish just assaulting your palate with citrus, lime zest and intense, rocky and stoney minerality. Wow. Incredible structure as well. This has 20+ years ahead of it and I cannot wait see where this is in an hour. Brilliant. Epic. Genius!

after 2 hours this is bananas. Insanely complex nose that is super confectionary. Citrus oil, tangerine oil, so so vivid. Unreal. Sick sick. 9.8 nose. Wow what a palate. So refined and delicate and has super rock candy confectionary citrus. A brilliant wine.

Ripe as hell and somehow dry. Straight out of Eden - exotic fruits and wild honeys in a creeping drip.

Golden peaches soft as pudding, giant sweet naval oranges, and perfumes of Zippo fluid. Delicious, decadent, evocative.

Can't get enough Mullen.
