  November 4, 2021 - This Morstein was once again classic keller goodness. Tropical fruit, mixed with minerality. Fruit intensity on par with the Hipper, and overall a delicious wine.

  November 20, 2019 - Another stunning '15. Really beautiful, deep, resonant wine. Very mineral, salty, shows a smokey quality, a little tartness on finish.

  November 20, 2019 - Whipped cream on the nose. Seductive aromas- a sublime, classic Morstein nose. Palate has deep, bass tones and serious but proportioned structure. Drinking this is like swimming in the ocean at dusk- your mind is very consumed while experiencing the pleasure. Not to regurgitate elements of a catch phrase here but IMO, this cuvee's unique layers of richness is part of what may be identified when correlating to Montrachet.

  November 22, 2018 - Classic Keller nose. There’s a ripeness and rainwater component that would normally suggest some residual sugar. The palate is almost tannic in its intensity and, of course, that impression of sweetness is shut down quickly. Compacted but with everything in its proper place. It’s not exactly giving at this point, but the potential is beyond obvious. These scratch an itch for me that used to be reserved for top white Burgundy; it's unfortunate that they're approaching that price with even more scarcity. Such amazing wines...

  December 26, 2017 - Für mich der Königswein des Nachmittags. Wie ein sehr spartanisch ausgestatteter Porsche GT3. Kein unnötiger Ballast an Bord, alles ist auf Power und Druck getrimmt. Dabei wird auf machohaftes Auftreten verzichtet. Schon im ersten Gang ist er auf der Überholspur. Was sehen, was der 7. Gang in ein paar Jahren kann. 97(99)
