Vinøs hyttetur 2023: Blind. Litt appelsinskall og safra og sukat, krydret; glatt i munnen med stor viskositet. Lang og intens, men kunne ha hatt litt mer syre -- allikvel en mektig og deilig vin.

AP 09 16. Fucking glorious! Just as the Spatlese incarnation fucks with your mind in its subtlety, this bottling of the Goldkapsel surprises in almost the inverse. The nose is nay-saying at first; one needs to really search for detail. But as smoldering embers deceive as to the intensity within, the AP 09 hits your palate with the full brilliant fire of the Mosel. Unlike the AP 12 that reeks of botrytis, this is the purest concentration of ripe, clean Riesling. Wonderful. 96+

A Rieslingfeier of our Own; 2/13/2017-2/18/2017 (Traben-Trarbach, Germany): 136 g/L residual sugar, 13 g/L acidity. In contrast to the Juffer GKA, this is a much more restrained wine. There is pretty much the same quality of fruit and acidity, but the minerality here has coiled this wine up very tightly, so that it is not as expressive on the palate. While I think this wine has better long term potential than its more flamboyant sibling, this just didn't show as well today.

(#9) Tasted after the "standard" Auslese, this is another step up. Richer, creamier, spicier. Wonderfully complex fruit notes, so ripe and dense. Fantastic acidity on the palate, nice mineral backbone, layers of gorgeously ripe fruit. Very very long. This can't be far from a Beerenauslese. Impeccably well balanced. Already delicious with so much potential. 95-96+
