-- Tiefenbrunner Feldmarschall Von Fenner Zu Fennberg Südtirol-Alto Adige Müller-Thurgau

Head Sommelier Aureole New York

9.4

The benchmark for the grape. Tiefenbrunner manages to tease a depth out of this grape beyond any examples I've tasted. Fascinating sweet white flower stems, cucumber, exotic white tea, shiso, kiwi, maché and with this overall succulence which speaks of clean-style smaragd Gruner in terms of its overall structural balance. The acid is present, but never verges into punishing and of course, a pleasant quinine-y bitter quality that marks it Italian. Overall like a magic refreshing elixir that they might serve you at alpine resort run by wood elves.

Never thought I'd call a Muller Thurgau intense but this one certainly is!

Muller Thurgau on freaking mineral steroids. Absolutely singing. Made my week!

So much sage on the nose with spice and stone fruits. Dry, slight bitterness that you get with Italian whites and pleasant purity and depth on the palate. Lovely wine.

2013 vintage, surprised with the racy acidity. The bottled kept changing while open.
