Musbrugger Grauer Burgunder

Great nose. Smokey, stone fruits, red apple, super vivid, what stunning minerality. Great nose, staring to get secondary. Wood shavings. Palate is rich and opulent yet tense and invigorating. Great tensile finish. So long. Precise and linear. The Z man can do it elite at all price points. This is crazy good and age only adds. As this airs it fills out and gets chewy and concentrated and retains its elite freshness and length. Almost a 9.4.

This is an unreal wine. One of the best skin contact wines out there. What a color. Pink as a rose. But with a golden sheen. Color is never to be remarked on unless it is truly exceptional. That is the case with this wine. Nose is clean. Like Bounty clean. Amazing pink grapefruit. A lovely bitter element. So delicate and deep. Masterful. Palate is tangy and has so much sweet pink grapefruit and stunningly bracing minerality. Unreal clarity and purity. Endless finish. One of those 9.4’s that you question all night after why you didn’t give it a 9.5.
