nailed it. Still so young. Primary notes. Some white flowers and exotic fruits, not too sweet. In a perfect stage now. for at least 10 more years. 99-1001 person found this helpful Comment -

This time not detected. Less floral and a bit less concentration but still young and far away from his peak. 96 -

Easy to detect. Still fresh, light, flowery. Still not reached his peak but very close. Balanced, not too sweet. So elegant. Masterpiece for Riesling. 98-99 -

This time close to perfection, still fresh, dense but not heavy, crystal clear. Will age at least one more decade. 99 -

We get 3 Rieslings blindly. This was the first. I guessed a hotter year as 2005 or 07 and Pfalz or Nahe. A bit too much yellow stone fruits and a hint too sweet. The bottle was greatly stored. A had this bottle "much" fresher in my memory. I was surprised of the vintage.
The second bottle was much fresher and more precise. I guessed Pfalz, someone said Idig. I said never because I'm not a big fan of the heavy Idig but this was beautiful and not reached his top. 95
The third was easy I thought. Keller Morstein 2004 because I had the Kirchspiel one month before and the G-max is more concentrated but this was again Kirchspiel. It is the perfect Riesling bottle. Heaven again. Fresh, light-fooded but with a cristal clear brilliance. It will last at least 10 more years. Not sweet, not perfumed. Brutally graceful. 100

1/25/2008 (link)(Keller Kirchspiel Grosses Gewachs) This was all cherries dancing on your palate as Klaus-Peter said. This wine seemed alive and wanted you to get involved with it. So playful and silky with wonderful minerality. Very drinakble and pure with astonishing length, cling and did I say purity. This was clearly my favorite of the two but it's like choosing your favorite child which for most of us is very difficult.
