(J.J. Christoffel Erdener Treppchen Auslese**) Best Riesling I have had in a while. Haven't had this in a year and it just gets better each time. Words cannot do this wine justice. Flint, apples, honey, slate on the ridiculosuly complex nose. Palate just takes command of your mouth with layers of deep, complex, honeyed nutty fruit. It attacks you from every which way. Unreal complexity and flavor precision. Genius wine
(J.J. Christoffel Erdener Treppchen Riesling Auslese **) Awesome!!!!! Nose of sweet herbs (thyme, rosemary), melon, canteloupe, cherries, slate. So clean, bright and polished. Very high-toned. Amazing depth and complexity. Thick, honeyed, crystal clear palate. Amazing harmony. Great interplay of salty, sweet, tangy, slate on the monumental finish. Can wine get any better? I don't know.
