1998 Müller-Catoir Haardter Bürgergarten Riesling Spätlese halbtrocken

Another winner from the Schwarz era. I have not had a Riesling from Catoir anywhere near this quality since 2001, and it's a shame. This is spectacular, an immediate wow from the nose alone. An array of bright fruit, stony minerality, citrus, pear, and riper tropical fruits, accented by more mature smoky and savoury elements. Incredibly complex and very intense on the palate yet retaining great focus and precision, and finishing very long.

Amazing! Too good for an adequate description, but I'll try. Such perfect balance between brown sugar, caramel, tart apricot, fig and citrus. Everything about this was as good as I can imagine. I'm not sure if I've done this yet, but...

despite the high alcohol of 10,5%!! One of the best non-riesling sweet wines I ever had. Perfect with Creme Brulee. Sadly my last bottle.

Darker than my last bottle. This seems more advanced as far as maturity goes. On the nose, toasted pineapple, honeycomb and beeswax. On the palate it seems more viscous but the acidity keeps it all in check. Lovely finish to a meal.

2nd of these in the same month as I'm evaluating whether to buy some more. Pop and pour. Consistent with previous notes. Zesty, full bodied orchard/tropical fruits and an acidic final that rings out for a minute. Sweetness very well balanced by acidity. Buying more.

Incredible acidity,so intense, the sweetness is nice and balances some of it out. Then you have the nice notes of black tea leaves, botrytis, forest honey and candied sugar. Awesome wine

Popped and poured. Medium dark yellow. Bouquet shows white floral scents, ripe citrus and some sweet tropical fruit, and a kerosene note. Immediately cuts across the palate with gobs of fruit, tart acids balancing the substantial amount of sugar present, and a flint stone minerality. Finely petillant and very long.

This opened over an hour or so, showing less kerosene on the bouquet and better integration.

I suppose this wine will leave few indifferent. For me this is a superb example of the genre, with great balance and complexity.

Edit: came back to this 4 days after opening and storage in a stoppered bottle in the fridge. Still loaded with flavour and intensity. I'd say this can easily go another 5 years.

Dinner at Browntrout (Browntrout, Chicago IL): Nose: The nose is so succulent and flowing with peaches, lychees, caramel, pears, green apples, floral notes, and some petrol. There is gorgeous depth and layering to the nose. This shows off maturity, but it is far from falling off as there is a balanced freshness too.

Taste: Medium bodied with medium+ acidity. There is a delicious fatness to the feel with peaches, lychees, some petrol, caramel, pears, and some green apples. There is still a real zip to the acidity to where it provides a nice spine and base.

Overall: This was fantastic. This is the kind of Riesling I would love to spend a lot of time with and let it fully reveal itself.

Dinner at Browntrout (Browntrout - Chicago, IL): One of the finer rieslings I've had. The aromatics were just off the charts...lychee, petrol, apple, petrichor, pears, and slate. So so good. The palate was just in the perfect place. Perfectly sweet, lots of acidity, and just endless layers of florals made this hard to put down. Easily the WOTN.

Dinner in Chicago with new friends (Browntrout (Chicago, Il)): My bottle. Medium orange. The nose is quite mature showing dried peach-apricot, a creamy texture, exotic spices: tea, curry and maybe a little galanga? It is quite perfumed and light. Very poised with an energetic leanness. The palate is similar - not as sweet or rich as I was expecting, with dried apricot and peach fruit, serious spice, tea and orange peel. Serious acidity. The palate went back and forth for me: some sips were poised and beautiful, a few others lacked a bit of oompf.

Dinner at Browntrout (Chicago, IL): Man, "that old guy" at Müller-Catoir really nailed this one on the head. This is peach and lychee on the nose, with just enough diesel to keep things interesting. There's so much happening on the palate that it's futile to describe. Interestingly, I detected a bit of an earthy funk to this bottle. Neat. Perhaps a bit drier than I'd have expected for an auslese (likely a function of time) this has plenty more room to go, and the only way is up.

Absolutely stellar stuff and a real head turner in a a great line up of rieslings that included several tasty Donhoffs, Prums and Willie Schafers too. So much depth supported with a great expansive mouthfeel and vibrant stoniness. Delicious. Only knock is that I'd like dial the sweetness back a smidge but nearly perfect otherwise and drinking very well. I definitely need to try some Kabinett from this producer.
