93 Points

Wednesday, August 16, 2023 - Dinner at Chengdu Impression (Chicago, IL): One of the sleeper wines tonight -- this is unmistakably rustic riesling in this modern day and age. Chewy with its extract and concentration, this handles the vintage in a really dignified way, controlling the acids and sugars. Massively sized for a Merkelbach wine, but relatively demure in the context of peers. I'm a huge fan of this, with an extra soft spot for having tasted it with the Brothers Merkelbach back in 2016.
