Graacher Himmelreich Auslese Mosel Riesling 2005

This showed much younger and fresher than its age. While pure, fresh and in good harmony, the wine lacked the depth and complexity that I usually associate with Schaefer’s wines.

Vintage 2017 | tasted at the domaine after a series of dry 2022 and I was blown away! At home retasted with chicken in jelly/aspic as starter. Same feeling. Beautiful slate minerals in smell, butter, creamy, and a delightful vibrant sweet expression. Love this (and it is not a great year)! — 2 years ago

2001 is a top vintage for Mosel Riesling and it shows. Fresh as a daisy and very charming.

Thörnicher Ritsch "Gacken Oben" Kabinett Feinherb Mosel Riesling 2019

Lyle Fass
9.5

Ok, this is so so serious and so so stunning! Insane nose that brings to mind top Willi Schaefer. Stunningly deep and intense aroma. Haunting, floral, savory, so deep. Penetrating. Lime. Slate. A sense of creaminess as well. So so good. Just a wow nose. 9.6 at least. What a palate. This is perfectly executed Feinherb. So nimble, yet tense and taut. Beautiful purity and a delicate elegant structure but impossible to put down now. Wow, the complexity and finesse. Such amazingness. So filigreed. So long. Perfectly dissipating finish. I know this will be that much better in 5 years. This is a genius wine.

As this airs the nose just gets so stankey and dankey. Just so slatey and mineral. Insane. Best lime ever. The Mosel is so good.

Best bottle yet. Absolutely stunning. Nose starting to develop. Hint of petrol. Apple pie. Phyllo. Ethereal haunting mineral vapor aromas. Palate is outrageous. Dense, dry extract up the wazoo, rich, packed to the gills with apple, peach fruit and just ripping acidity and freshness. Finish is like clean Icelandic water with Mosel vibes and perfect sweetness. Just amazing. — 3 months ago

Pechstein Riesling 2007

Vintage 2007 | these are the nice surprises… this bottle was not in my cellar administration… found in a corner of the cellar. Gold colour. Honeyed smell with minerals. Fine acidity. Good concentration. Paired with fried cod (kibbeling) and celery. — 9 months ago
