Great Blaufrankisch. Bramble, dark cherries. What strikes me are the polished tannins so very well integrated with acidity, minerality and low alcohollevels. I think that the peak of this wine is somewhere between 2030 and 2035. — 19 minutes ago

Vintage 2023 | it’s dry, not halbtrocken. Amazingly enjoyable although absolutely not true to type Sauvignon. Paired with an antipasto of paprika with capers. — a year ago

My first time trying a Grosses Gewächs from the Mosel is this 2019 Erdener Treppchen from very old, ungrafted vines in the tender care of Ernst Loosen.

I popped ‘n poured this wine on the first night, which you should never do with young Riesling. Thus, it was very reserved on opening, but by the second day it’s a moderately pungent affair with bags of Mosel character. Obvious notes are fresh lime, crisp apple and wet slate, as well as lemongrass and petrichor. The palate is full-bodied, with generous flavours of zesty lime and ripe, crisp apple, even some raspberry, and such is the concentration of fruit and this wines aromatic profile, there’s a slight perception of an off-dry character which only adds complexity. The supercharged acidity contributes to a lasting finish.

This powerful, utterly gorgeous wine from the warm, successful 2019 vintage in the Mosel is in an embryonic stage of its development and will age superbly. — 3 years ago

Strawberries and minerals on the nose and palate, more mild acidity compared to prior years. I'm loving this vintage!! — 10 months ago

Tropical and citrus aromas, a rounder body and more subtle acid than expected from a Sauv Blanc, and rich tropical fruitiness. — 3 years ago

At a terrific spot, just gorgeous mature Riesling all around with a particularly lively and vibrant texture. Amazing how these Kabs hold up so well. Perfect with hot pot dinner for MM and Ben visit. — 5 years ago

Certainly the most “serious” blaufrankish I’ve had, fitting for our first meal in Vienna. Deep cherry red in the glass. Aromatically quite giving with lots of red fruit. Medium plus body with a nice finish, though likely better with a bit of age. Nice wine! — 7 years ago
