10 years after Riesling tasting - 2014 (Restaurant Brunnenstube, Beinstein): Glass: Gabriel Universal Bottle opened ~10h before the tasting. Clear, deep golden color. Ripe, advanced nose, some mineral notes, nuts. On the palate ripe, a bit past peak, mineral notes, a bit flabby. Could not keep up with the rest. 87

This is a stunning wine. Mineral, saline, floral, citrus, fabulous structure, great mouthfeel, a nose that is out of this world. Fabulous Riesling from a gifted winemaker.

Tasting with Jochen Beurer & Aaron Schwegler (Carpe Noctem Wein Göppingen): Jochen Beurers GG out of the Stettener Pulvermächer from 2014 shows youthful at the moment. A difficult vintage with lots of rain & warm temperatures during the harvest. Nevertheless Beurer is very satisfied with the final result, saying that the wine needs time and will have a long life. At the moment the fruit in the form of white peaches, unripe quince and pear is a bit withdrawn, the mineral component mixed with lots of white flowers & orange zest are upfront. On the palate the wine is (like the Junge Schwaben) a combination of power & elegance but with a extra bit of tension, vibrant acidity and length. Quite muscular with some edges but everything integrated in the big picture. I'm super curious how this bad boy will age over the next decade. A truely stunning showing & the best white wine out of my home region Württemberg I've ever had. Well done.

Rieslingfeier 2017; 2/17/2017-2/18/2017 (NYC): Tasted at large walkaround tasting. Lighter than I expect from a GG, this drinks under its pedigree. wet stones, light apple notes.

2015 Vintage presentation VDP Württemberg (Alte Reithalle, Stutgart, Germany): Not very intense nose, not based on its fruit but more on tertiary aromas like soil, stones and smoke. Medium intense and medium finish. It has potential but I can’t judge its future…
