This magnificent Riesling is extreme inspiring. It has a lot of power and gripping minerality on the one side and stays so elegant, playful and slim on the other side. Perfect balance.

Winery Zelt ~ Cabernet Franc 2009

                                

This very delightful wine is a rare example of Cabernet Franc which is not so often bottled separately. It’s a pity because the potential is huge like this benchmark shows. Warm and full-bodied it flatters with chocolate and very ripe berries. Shows alluring flow with power and a significant peppery flavor. Juicy with cold elements (minerality) in the background. Impressive.

Winery Gies-Düppel ~ Spätburgunder “Kastanienbusch” 2008

                                

A brilliant Pinot with tremendous refreshing minerality. Showing in a perfect way where he is coming from. Pure and gripping with focus on subtlety and depth. Herbs, lovely toasted wood and ripe berries are playing together absolutely in balance. Powerful and razor-sharpened. An original, unfussy.

Drink it now with bottle opened for some minutes. Should have around 18°C.

Winery Siener ~ Riesling “Taschberg” 2009

                                

The „Taschberg“ 2009 is a stunning wine scoring with enormous authenticity. Characteristically earthy minerality mixed up with countless slightly bitter herbs and juicy apples and peaches. Gripping and powerful with refreshing acidity. Fascinating.

If i remember correctly the 2009 was the last dry „Taschberg“. It changed into a sweeter and more easy-going direction.
