This 22-year-old #Saar #Riesling was as fresh as spring itself--the balance between the steely acidity and gentle honeysuckle sweetness left us breathless--easily the fastest-to-empty bottle of them all--BRAVO #EGON!!! #EgonMüller #Scharzhofberger #spätlese #1994 — 10 years ago

2006 von Hövel #Auslese
A triumph of man over nature--this great late-harvest #Riesling from one of the tiniest #Saar vineyards is packed with botryrtis complexity and endless layers of honeysuckle flavors with a touch of caramel--who needs desert? This is it! #GermanWineSociety — 11 years ago

Trocken, but the overwhelming richness gives the impression of a fair amount of RS. Wet, gray slate and rainwater. Just enough acidity, but still a typical, fatty 2015. #reinert #saar #riesling — 7 years ago

#1993s were, across the board, perfectly-focused, jewel-like #Rieslings, and the #Saar region made particularly beautiful wines.
#EgonMüller makes a habit of excellence and this lovely #Spätese disappeared very quickly from all of our glasses! — 11 years ago

One of the #Saar region's finest sites not far from the world renowned Scharzhofberg--our esteemed auctioneer, Max von Kunow, has fashioned a lovely, typical Saar #Riesling that is as fine as anything they've ever made--BRAVO! #VDP #Auction — 12 years ago

2007 Kanzemer Altenberg #Spätlese, von Othegraven (#auction)--this beautiful #Saar #Riesling was the perfect partner with fois gras and passion fruit--an excellent recommendation of our Host/Chef Hubi #Scheid. — 12 years ago

High acid, pineapple and lemon/lime curd, medium weight and tart. Lambertskirch is Lauer’s newest vineyard. Really nice fruit and soaring acidity, but lacks the mineral backbone that his other wines have. #saar — 5 years ago

Blossoms and wet slate. Feinherb. Bit of SO2 blows off quickly. Concentration and silky smooth texture to burn...which seem to be the tell on the best 2017s. Cantzheim’s first vintage with the full array of vineyards purchased from Reinert...and a fantastic beginning! #saar #feinherb #riesling #cantzheim — 8 years ago

Vintage 2009 - perfect balance, dried apricot in smell, buttery and mineral taste #saar #riesling #kabinett #zilliken — 9 years ago

Classic #Saar steeliness and clarity with delicate mineral notes and an almost gossamer mouthfeel to it... A wine to quaff and enjoy with all sorts of spicy foods... utterly refreshing! #Reinert #ritterpfad #riesling #kabinett #feinherb #2013 — 11 years ago

Ayler #Kupp is one of the true gems of the #Saar and apparently in 2011 Florian #Lauer and his picking team hit a grand slam with this spectacular #Riesling #TBA--drink it at it apex...in about 50 years! — 12 years ago
