2015 Wittmann La Borne Riesling Alte Reben

Rheinhessen more

10/26/2019 - boblu1993 Likes this wine: 100 points

La borne by wittmann is no doubt a great sample of the greatest morstein terroir.
The auction only wines are the most concentrate and intense Wittmann wine. Has the power of Morstein and the steely stony texture from high hill top. Powerful, structured with restriction.

Compared with 13 and 14, 15 is tighter and deeper at this stage but has so strong power underneath. 15 La borne is a great wine from great vintage.

To be auctioned in Germany in September (around 360 bottles apparently). Totally different to Morstein GG tasted just before. This is quite amazing given that the La Borne parcel is part of the same vineyard. The nose is incredible - more finesse and restraint; fine and ripe stonefruit, herbs. Chalky, slightly floral and smoky with lots to emerge in the years to come. Very concentrated and precise on the palate, but again much finer and less expressive than the slightly "loud" Morstein. Very fine, intense, bright, slightly creamy even. Amazing mineral backbone. The length is stunning. Absolutely breathtaking. 98-99+

What a superb wine. Still crisp and fresh with lemon zest and a chalky note that reminds me of Keller’s Abtserde. This has many years to go, amazing for this warm vintage

Happy Easter 🐣🐇🐰 wines continue!

Haven’t had the 2010 Wittmann GGs in a while, so going with the King!

👁️ golden yellow with amber touch

👃 honey, ripe yellow peach, limestone, pure, smells fresher than the color suggested

👄 medium+ body; all the 👃 promises plus pure orange, the wine is so typical for the 2010 vintage, which wasn’t a blockbuster or heat vintage, but there is an inner saltiness, acidity & deep minerality spine which is superb &caused me to increase to 98p. Not a loud wine, superb wine which needs to be listened to carefully.

On apex now - 2029

98p

2002 Wittmann Westhofener Aulerde Riesling Trockenbeerenauslese

The sweetest finish to a Birthday dinner one can hope for. I struggled a lot before deciding to bring this bottle, but was never sorry for that. Yellowish color, honey and plums on the phenomenal nose. The palate is so complex, with honey, brown sugar, apple tart, lemon zest and huge acidity to balance. The finish is LLLLLLong. that long. all in all a wine to die for. Drinkable now, but will improve for 10-30 years I guess. 98 points, easy.

Tasted after Brunnenhäuschen GG. On the nose yellow stone fruit, herbs, crushed stones. Lots of depth. I scribbled down "power" 3 or 4 times in my tasting note even after the already quite muscular Brunnenhäuschen. Very focussed and precise, slightly chalky, fresh, mineral with amazing purity of fruit. The way it builds up to an incredibly intense and persistent finish is breathtaking. Absolutely fantastic. 97-98+

14 is more opening at this stage, compared with 13 and 15, it’s more floral on nose with higher residual sugar.

Dette er en drøy vin på alle måter - med positivt fortegn. Flott nese med tropisk frukt i retning av nektarin og fersken, samt "sitrusolje". Enorm konsentrasjon, drøyeste hvite jeg har smakt, ettersmaken sitter og sitter - i flere minutter. En utrolig "vakker" og balansert vin. 97-98

Very detailed and expressive on the nose - notes of ripe yellow stone fruit, exotic fruit, herbs, crushed stones. On the palate searing acidity, generous fruit, lots of minerality. Super long and vibrant finish. In a great spot right now, but no rush at all. 96-98

A Perfect Match: Riesling GG versus Beef Vol. 4 (Delta Bistro, Lagerstraße 11, Hamburg): First of my two brought bottles, what a fragrance, WOW!
The pure stone licking, energetic as energetic can be, the still demanding acid is THAT convincing, extrem long finish, a reference bottle! ****(*), 97- 98+potential

Tasted next the 2013 Keller Morstein GG without taking formal notes of either. The nose is spectacular, so detailed and rich and poised and elegant and providing a preview of what the palate will be like in 10+ years. At the moment it is quite tight with wonderful minerality and freshness showing great purity of fruit and a stunning vibrancy. And then the finish... A sensational wine. 96-97+

This wine has no business being this delicious...I can't stop myself from opening these. I bought six and I've already drank three of them in the first 6 months. I know this wine will improve over time, but right now it's so harmonious and brilliant that it's THE riesling I want to drink all the time. There's a balance and beauty in the lean and laser-like focus of the acidity and fruit profile in this while scents seem to fill the glass and as time passes it seems to build and grow in depth and complexity. I have 3 bottles left, but sadly at this rate I just don't know if I'll be able to keep my hands off them when they're this good. An Extraordinary wine...the only wine I've tasted from the 2015 vintage that even comes close to rivaling this is the 2015 Keller Abts Erd and that Keller might have been the best young Dry Riesling I've ever tasted this is JUST behind it in quality and complexity for me.

Wittmann Kirchspiel Vertikale 2000-2016 im Concept Riesling
Ich bin kein Wittmann-Spezialist. Aus diesem Grunde freute ich mich umso mehr auf die Einladung von Flo, an dieser einmaligen Vertikalen bei tollem Essen teilnehmen zu dürfen. Die Flaschen 2000-2003 waren direkt aus Philipp Wittmanns Keller. Getrunken wurde nicht blind.

Der Wein des Nachmittags, nicht nur für mich. Unglaublich frisch, knackig, jugendlich. Kaum Alterungszeichen. Beginnend auf dem Höhepunkt. Extreme saftige Yuzufrucht, Limette, Passionsfrucht. Unendlich puristischer Abgang mit erfrischender Mineralität. 2001 wird so langsam zu meinem Lieblings-Riesling-Jahrgang. 97

Her er det ingenting å si på intensiteten!
Stor duft av blomster, hvit frukt, lett tropisk, flere lag jeg ikke klarer å beskrive.
Ekstremt intens med voldsom konsentrasjon.
Dette er ganske vilt.
Allikevel nok friskhet til å matche.
At en så svær vin kan være balansert er ganske imponerende.
Fantastisk dybde i frukten, ren og vakker.
Holder fokus fra start til slutt.
Har en finish som varer uendelig.
En utrolig vin.
