  WXTP Tasting IV - 2010 and 2011 German QbA Rieslings (Brad's Place): Pretty solid. Bottled under screw-cap, this had the slightest bit of reduction on an otherwise tight nose of earthy mineral, with subtle white fruit and gooseberry aromas glaced with slightly toasted caramel note. A bit hard to access at the moment.The well-defined palate was pure Mosel though, with impeccably balanced flavours of limes, some fleshy lemons and ripe apple laced with bright, citrussy acidity and flinty minerals. That toasted caramel note emerged again right at the end of a long, juicy finish. It was quite a big and ripe for Mosel at this level, but very nicely balanced and structured. I would leave this aside for at least a couple of years given the tightly wound structure, but it was a very solid QbA that shoudl develop well.
