No this wine is not overrated ;-) This was a nearly perfect bottle of dry Riesling. The pureness, freshness and the aromatic depth/complexity were just great. A higl Level of minerlaity and a superb acitiy makes this wine to a great wine experience.
Et snev av tropisk frukt på smak. Litt skuffende i forhold til 1999 Kieselberg som ble smakt i sommer. Såvidt bak 2001 Von Buhl Kirchenstuck på blindmakingen.

Wonderful ripe Riesling. Lots of peaches, lime and apple on the nose. Great texture. One can tell that it has matured, but that only adds to the complexity. Liked it a lot.

(Georg Mosbacher Ungeheuer Forst Grosses Gewachs) This was a mean wine. Bitter, astringent, acrid. Like eating orange skin. This was painful to drink. All acid and minerals and not balanced. The nose misleads you as it is very pretty with citrus, lime blossom and a floral component. But also a hint of rot sneaks in to detract. On day two it somewhat improves but still is a beverage I would not want to drink again. Too bad. I don't know if any of this will come around but I hear Mosbacher has greatly improved since 2002 and his 2007's are the real deal. Only tasting will tell.
