Didn't expect much from this wine today after my first bottle over ten years ago, then just a light wine. This has developed a great deal at 17 years of age. Honey, pineapple in the nose and a lovely sweetness on the palate. Excellent quality, a "transparent" wine, letting you taste every single grape.

1/1 Another bottle of my absolue favourite of the Montosa vintages. Just great. I had Nonneberg and Schlossberg 2011 some 5 years ago. You could already feel the potential. Closed, massive, in particular the Schlossberg. These two are becoming stars in 5-10+ years. And then, tasting work to be done. Look forward to it ...

Improved but still quite young in the nose. Young colour, fruit, very tannic, needs air, I gave an hour. Gets smoother, however to a certain extent only. Storage will be awarded in 5+ years.

Bottle in very good condition, quite youth still, colours of a mature, just 20+ years Barolo. Tertiary notes. Tannins pretty melted, smooth elegant, what you would expect from a good Barolo. I thougt better to drink that bottle sooner than later but this one would have stayed 10+ years in that great condition. That's a 94p.

I drank half of the bottle about 3 (!) weeks ago and thought the wine was harsh and it was worth keeping the other half in my wine fridge. Today I was amazed to see this drinking quite well. Same category than some of the German prestige wineries entrance wines at a double price. I f you have it hold it for 2-4 years more. 87-88p

2005 Fritz Haag Brauneberger Juffer-Sonnenuhr Riesling Spätlese trocken

5/27/2018 - Paui wrote: 91 points

I drank this wine 8 years ago and it still has this sparkling note which also the dry wines of Maximin Gruenhaeuser wines have. Not what I like.

Had half of the bottle today, almost three (!) weeks in my wine fridge, only with a stopper, and the sparkling was gone. Amazing, the wine needed that air and opened up nicely. Sweet, full bodied, loverly, not like a dry Spätlese, no signs of ageing. Need to revise my scoring 4p up. Storing this wine will be awarded.

Decanted half of the bottle for 3 hours, kept the other half in the open bottle. Both developed then better in the burgundy glass. More open than about a year ago. Already very pleasant to drink. Glad to have some more bottles of this wine. 93-94p

Wonderful dry Riesling, full bodied, well balanced acid/fruit play. I kept a third of the bottle, corked, in a regular fridge for a week. Surprisingly the wine was well alive and, actually it had developed further. It showed a slight botrytis note. No sign of oxidation. No hurry.

5/4/2018 - Paui Likes this wine: 92 points

Improvements since last time, which was about only 8 months ago. A great bottel. Decanted for 5 hours at about 17-18° Celsius. Dark ruby colour, no bricking, still quite tannic, fruit coming through in the nose with more air. The wine opened up further in the glass very well then, and tannins softened more and more by almost the minute...and etting tastier on the palate. This is drinking well now with a decant and air in the glass. In a couple of years this may be well all I expect from a classic and very good Batailley, ie, a though not too complex, robust, straight forward, enjoyable and affordable Pauillac. Like this. 92-93+

From 1/1. Confirmed once more, a truly great success for Breuer in 2011. Love this wine after, having tasted many times. Went actually well with goat cheese this time. Will look out for more of this. Agree, 92 is a high score, but Montosa 2011 deserves it.

No development over night. Worth to store for a couple of years in the cellar.

Last bottle out of three. Turned out to be the most mature bottle however the first to declare as past its prime. Again, this wine reminded me to a St. Julien, but more importantly, to a good bottle of aged burgundy. Very clear in colour and taste. Very little, almost none depot.

2000 Château Batailley

2/2/2018 - Paui wrote: 92 points

high fill, cork 1/6 soaked, a good bottle I suppose given some of the previous TN. Actually similar to a 2001 half bottle I drank 5 years ago which introduced me to this Chateaux. A delicious claret, rather light body with good sweetness and grip. Develops in the glass with a plummy and cozy note. I drank several other vintages of this wine in the last 3-4 years: 2002's about half of it gone, the other half almost this level, 1983 today a disapointment and ways gone, 2004's being still tannic but promising quality, 2009 very addictive in its early stage. This Chateaux in my view doesn't create a unique wine, however solid in any vintage, without reaching hights. A very good QPR though. 92p for this delightful wine.
