Community Tasting Note

Tuesday, August 22, 2023 - Decanted (in a Voss btl) for ~2+hrs by the time we came to this... Served blinded, side-by-side a '17 Keller Morstein GG. Marvelous bouquet - nose of the evening in my humble opinion... with tropical fruits - pineapples, honey-mellon, nectarines, lemons blended with a slight tinge of kerosene. Wow, just marvelous! Unlike the '19 Kuhling Gillot Hipping GG, this was just as inviting on the nose as it was on the palate. Quite obviously, there was this gulf between the Keller & Emrich, vs. the Gillot. Both Keller & Emrich showed very well on the palate with the Keller showing more restrain & tension and the Emrich punchy, giving but balanced with just the right level of freshness & acidity that render it almost exemplary. Nobody guessed the age gulf/difference correctly, with most zooming in to a 3-5yrs difference (vs. the actual 8-yrs). This definitely still had legs, and it'd be wonderful to tast again sometime further down the road where the complexity should also be further dialed up a notch! Most delicious!
