Wein-Erbhof Stein
Ohne Sekt Extra Brut Riesling
Not sure if this wine is labeled correctly. It was the ohne Sekt Sparkling Riesling. This got super savory as it warmed up a bit. It was an incredibly enjoyable bottle.

Jun 1st, 2018Riesling trocken. Big fan of this. Some variation bottle to bottle because zero sulfur. This showed great. Kinda blew the PYCM out of the water in terms of intensity. A great mate for food as well. Lovely and lively!!

1 person found it helpfulMar 12th, 2016Unsulfured Stein bottling originally created for Noma. Not the gambling sort, and friends had reported extreme bottle variation, so I grabbed a single bottle. Opened on a Monday night, prepared for the worst. We lucked out. Fabulous nose, hint of botrytis, beeswax. Initial funky oxidative notes blew off in the decanter. Palate is massive slate mineral core, huge refreshing acid, citrus, creamy elegance. Two hours in now it tastes like still champagne, rather lees-y.

May 25th, 2021This is the 2011 Ohne Sekt Extra Brut. I was expecting more of an aged Riesling profile with some petrol. It just screamed acid with tart apricot and wet rock. Better the second night, very tight and one dimensional when first opened.
