2004 Domdechant Werner Hochheimer Hölle Riesling Kabinett

Rheingau more

3/1/2024 - Ingmars wrote: NR

My last bottle. Cork removed intact - a good sign - but the colour is an unappetising medium tan with orange hints immediately upon pouring. The nose shows orange citrus and very minor marzipan, but clearly, the wine is well beyond prime. The palate is sweet, having a light-spätlese body, but while the flavour is decently concentrated with old orange fruit, the initial sense of some residual energy has vanished, leading to a dull and dreary conclusion. At the start it was quite good, but before the half-bottle mark it becomes just ordinary, which is in-line with my memory how this wine has generally performed since 2019. My lot are done now, but I see 19 bottles in CT as still remaining unconsumed. I wish the owners, or the executors of their estates, good luck.

Perfekt. Schon orange in der Farbe.
Auslese wie sie sein muss. Honig. Dabei aber auch nicht zu viel und immer noch schlank. Toll!

2019 Künstler Hochheimer Hölle Riesling "im Neuenberg" trocken

Rheingau more

1/12/2024 - honest bob wrote: NR

From 75cl screwcap. I've tasted quite a few of Künstler's 2019 Rieslings in the Kabinett trocken—Spätlese trocken range recently (Kirchenstück, Stielweg, Rüd. Bischofberg etc.) This is the least developed, with a notable CO2 spritz still getting in the way of the Hölle apricot/tropical fruit weight it'll surely show in a couple of years. Best in 2025-26? If I absolutely had to rate this now, I'd say 89P(?), but I think it's sleeping, and has potential for 91P at maturity. NR

2016 Domdechant Werner Hochheimer Hölle Riesling Spätlese

독일 리슬링이야 워낙에 가성비 가성비하니 나름 자주 많이 마셔본 거 같긴 하다.
그럼에도 불구하고 이게 그렇게 좋은건가 싶었는데 이제는 이래서 좋구나까지는 온 것 같다.
결론부터 말하면 역시나 가성비가 좋았던 독일 리슬링.

노즈에서는 시트러스 계열의 향이 느껴진다.
레몬이나 라임과 같이 신 과일보다는 오렌지나 귤처럼 단 맛이 있는 시트러스 과일에 가깝다.
이어서 파인애플과 같은 열대과일 향도 기분좋게 느껴진다.

팔렛에서는 맛있는 아카시아 꿀물같은 맛이 난다.
기분좋은 산도가 이어져서 단 맛이 기분 나쁘게 들러붙지는 않는다.
알코올이 높지 않다보니 알코올 부즈가 치고 올라오지 않는 점 역시 나쁘지 않다.

음식 페어링은 생각보다 어려운 편.
매운 음식이랑 어울릴까 해서 오징어 볶음과 먹어봤는데 어마어마하게 비려졌다.
아마 단 쿠키를 먹으면 좀 더 나으려나?

Apple, peach, intense minerals and saltiness. On the palate it’s more reserved and has a touch of sweetness. The finish is not long but pleasant enough with salt and spice.

This Riesling has a golden hue and good viscosity.
The bouquet mixes tropical fruit (ananas, mango), herbs and some creamy top note.
The wine is medium to full-bodied with a fresh, but rich palate.
Drinking nicely right now, I would guess it stays at its plateau for another 5 years.

2017 Künstler Hochheimer Hölle Riesling Erstes Gewächs

Rheingau more

9/24/2023 - honest bob wrote: 90 points

From 75cl screwcap. Leaving aside Stuart Piggot's ridiculous 98P rating, not to mention his—alas—typically overstated, but now canonized, TN, this is an excellent wine, all the same. Six years after the vintage shouldn't be long for a German Riesling, let alone one from the hallowed soils of Hochheim, but this bottle, bought from the producer, never moved since from perfect storage, and sealed with the best technology available (screwcap, yay!) is now fully mature, perhaps even beginning its decline. All the good stuff previously noted on 12.03.2023, but just further down the road and gradually fading. Medium-dark gold colour; ripe petrol-tinged scent; big bitter-mineral palate in balance between fully-mature sweetness and acidity; heavy, dropping finish. Compared to several delicious bottles of Künstler's basic 2015 Hölle (previously it would have been called "Kabinett trocken") recently tasted, a wine now just starting to decline from its gorgeous peak in +-2022, this GG is thicker, heavier, richer, in no way inferior, but definitely less aromatic, less lithe, more bitter and concentrated, over twice the price, and—for me—less pleasurable at dinnertime. 89–90P

Showcases an exciting interplay between minerality and fruity notes. Hints of zesty lemon, accompanied by delicate undertones of apple and apricot. Finished with characteristic petroleum. Also some salt. While enjoyable, considering the price point, I find myself cautiously optimistic and inclined to believe that this wine might benefit from further aging.

8/20/2023 - DominikMueller Likes this wine: 91 points

Rich, yellow colour. Slightly ethereal on the nose with smoky minerality. Above this lies an animating, ripe yellow fruit. On the palate, the 2015 Hochheimer Hölle Auslese is powerful and juicy with ripe fruit: Apricot, orange and pineapple. The sweetness is flanked by a well-integrated acidity. Candied lemons. This tastes very fine and lasts long on the palate. A great Auslese that can age for many more years. DM91+. Full tasting note on DMueller.com.

Rich and full-bodied - a lot of everything starting with peach and blossom aromas, then lime on the palate into concentrated tropical fruit notes with lychee and guava to the fore in a long finish with a nice, creamy mouthfeel, all elevated by a refreshing acidity. Full on flavours and a good weight.
