2013 Dr. Loosen Erdener Pralat Grosses Gewachs Reserve (60 15) 12.5% abv Burg stem. Pale to moderate yellow. Just a powerhouse nose here. Very ripe red skinned peaches, redcurrants, a touch of dryer sheet, very spicy and salty/mineral. The palate leads off the same way before a wave of acidity and dry extract torques the palate. I can’t remember the last time a wine has such sweetness of flavor profile and was so structured at the same time… and the transition is seamless. After 24 hours of being open, this basically hasn’t budged. An incredible wine.

Some Impressions; 9/15/2018-9/22/2018 (Concept Riesling Düsseldorf): Love this wine. A friend of mine, a well known Mosel expert, couldn't detect the region because the wine is so different to other wines from Mosel. Nearly dry and because it was two years on the lees it is so creamy and fullbodied. It never looses its elegance. Lime cest, peach, pear and a touch of red apple. Herbal. But it was not that "fat" compared to one year ago. 94+
