Mosel, Germany
Tasted blind. Dark gold, heavy in the glass. Crazy nose with notes of ripe apricot, petrol, burnt orange and slate. Less impactful in the mouth. Very light acidity and a thin finish. This was all about the nose. Good start to the night.

1998 was for many producers a very challenging vintage but if they used good judgement and picked their grapes carefully some really excellent wines were made that have aged extremely well primarily due to a core of fine acidity--von Schubert's Abstberg Spätlese is hands down one of the great triumphs of that year! #KellerParty

2011 vintage. Green melon/papaya, underripe fruit throughout with tons of minerality. RS on the back end that was perfectly balanced.
