Wow, this is an absolute bombshell of a wine, the Lorcher Riesling from Rheingau superstar Eva Fricke in the 2019 vintage. Right from the get-go, this supercharged wine blows you off your feet with its cacophony of petrol, salt, lime and garden herbs on the nose – almost like shoving your proboscis into a packet of salt and vinegar crisps. In a good way!

The palate is actually quite a contrast, with a supple, generous mouthfeel with none of the hard edges this grape can bring. Perhaps attributable to the warm, ripe vintage that 2019 was. But it offers a complex array of bitter fruits, some sweet lime, nectarine, and a long finish. It is perhaps slightly underwhelming given the supercharged aromas this wine possesses, but it’s very good stuff nevertheless!

Thicker than 2003. But we can drink it from the beginning. Black currant. Concentration. Ink. 1 hour decanting is necessary. 2005 @3850, Eva - LGM, 221218-220121 — 2 years ago

Tasting of 10 of the 2007-2011 Dehlinger Pinots. Eva Delingher was kind enough to join our tasting and answer all of our random questions. So this one seemed to have some VA which was so disappointing - my rank 10th of 10. Group also ranked it last place. — 4 years ago
