At a wine friends home,
hundreds of square meters to feel fine and relax,
grill some meat or even vegetable dishes, 25 degrees celsius max.,
open one bottle after the other, or maybe open two, three right away simultaneously,
the goal is relaxation and joy for everyone present!
DONE!

From MAG:
Tension, tension, tension,
powerful saline on the palate, great depth and quite full bodied, delicate vineyard peach, electric long aftertaste, bloody young but so delicious swallowing, enjoy with a decent decant, better hold!

2015 Weingut am Stein Stettener Stein Riesling Großes Gewächs 92 Points
Germany, Franken
From MAG:
Unscrew! And feel fine!
The next saline 2015 bottle from one of the best estates/vineyards of the Franken zone,
clean stone fruit, more body than the MAGNUS, in a way an electric mineral chalky stone fruit cocktail,
bloody young showing still, with a Stelvin the wine is kept very fresh over a long period, one may like this or not, but it is obvious, long demanding finish, **(**- ?), around 92, 93 potential

And now: from Si(y)vaner, same vineyard and estate, different grape,
this immense spice here, great floral hints, the fruit more on the white side, ripe pear, tension too, really great flow and very food friendly with the now served grilled dishes, chorizo in all styles!
**(**), around 91, 92

NV Taittinger Champagne Brut Réserve 93 Points
France, Champagne
From D-MAG:
has been sleeping quite some years in my cellar,
golden coloured,
what a nose, ripe fruits, full load of brioche, almonds,
very well structured, juicy, creamy flow, lots of stone fruit then, nutty, and with a delicious long aftertaste full of tension,
the crowd emptied this bottle in new record time, that delicious,
shows again: a Champagne in big bottle and with maturation is best, even from the entry level section! An easy 93 for today

2012 Dönnhoff Hermannshöhle Riesling Großes Gewächs 88 Points
Germany, Nahe
From D-MAG:
very fruit driven, juicy tropical fruit showing, I do have to admit, had some hmmmmm..... how to say......, inconstant bottles of this vintage,
but 2012 only, enormous density here, quite young showing from big bottle that helps this time, but again:
this vintage of Dönnhoff Hermannshöhle GG is not really convincing me!

1982 Château Sociando-Mallet 93 Points
France, Bordeaux, Médoc, Haut-Médoc
One of my two MAG´s:
hmmmm...... we are very lucky people tonight, a 40 year old bottle always is surprisingly unclear in offered quality before pnp,
but this time it works, dark cassis, well balanced, licorice, meaty flow, quite some finesse here,
from the age of the best filled Sociandos, memorable and I am grateful to be able to share such a bottle like this one in fine quality, enjoy!

2015 Schäfer-Fröhlich Bockenauer Felseneck Riesling Großes Gewächs 95 Points
Germany, Nahe
One last MAG:
and as nearly always from Bockenau: stunning!
Tension, tension, tension,
a battery of "StalinOrgeln" are firing at our palates, the smoke of this Riesling bottle could have been used to enlighten a fire......, NEARLY!
Again a razor sharp blade over the palate and in the long, very convincing aftertaste! An easy 95 for tonight, but more to come, I do guess!
