Martin Müllen

Trarbacher Huhnerberg Spätlese* trocken Mosel Riesling 2020

Nose: potent. That th tropicality. Piercing fresh minerals.

Palate: slatey. Hints of tropical fruit. A bit bitter on open. Needs an hour to open up and integrate. This may be a masterpiece with time.

Still needs another year.

Michel & Stéphane Ogier (d'Ampuis)

Côte-Rôtie Syrah 2005

No formal notes . Deeper ruby , medium wide ruby , garnet rim . Nice dark fruits , garrigue , black pepper. In the mouth nicely balanced acidity dark fruits , black pepper and herbal touches . Quite mineral and balanced on the medium length finish , fine slightly grippy tannins . Elegant and refined. Drinking well now though absolutely no rush , prime drinking over the next 5-10 years perhaps . — 11 days ago

Martin Stelling Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon 2009

Wine is incredibly dark and brooding. Very dense and heavy taste and texture right out of the bottle.

Drank over about 3 hours. Oxygen was this wines friend and the wine opened up quite a bit to reveal more bright and red fruit to complement the black fruit and density which also gave way as it breathed.

Not a blockbuster from a complexity perspective and lacked the punch of something special. But a solid oakville cab nonetheless and not too oaky.
