Koehler-Ruprecht The best Dries and some add-ons; 6/23/2019-6/27/2019 (Neuhof am See): Semiblind. All wines decanted for a few hours. Gabriel Standard glas. Flights of three, All KS dry wines of Spätlese, Auslese, Auslese R und RR. One of the big suprises of the tasting but if you know 1999 as a vintage it is not really a suprise. Some Popcorn so you could guess Burgundy. 95

Koehler-Ruprecht: Complete Saumagen vertical of all Spätlese and Auslese R and RR plus X (Neuhof am See, Dillingen, Germany): *** please understand this note in the context of the whole vertical tasting *** Glass: Gabriel Standard Tasted blind. Wonderful fresh, scented nose with an unusual fine citrus notes. So fresh and young on the palate with great pressure and tension. Slightly mature notes, herbs and nettles, gooseberries, fine chalky mineral notes. Still young and with good potential. Wonderful length! 93-94+

This one got a fantastically ambivalent character. The nose got plenty of detergent powder, stinging aggressiveness, black pepper, seaweed and plenty of smoke. So far so interesting! Apparently a pretty austere fellow I suppose. The taste was completely different. I got impressions of English Toffee, quite a lot of sweetness, slight lemon flavours, hints of smoke and plenty of (violent) power. Certainly a very interesting and complex wine, but not very enjoyable, pretty imbalanced and not really impressive in a positive manner.
