Willi Schaefer Graacher Himmelreich Riesling Kabinett 2021, 0.75L
Riesling from Graach, Mosel
"The 2021 Graacher Himmelreich Riesling Kabinett shows stunning reduction on the clear, intense and well-concentrated, super precise and also complex nose that reveals discreet herbal aromas. What a beauty! Lush and light on the palate, this is a pristine, textured and incredibly fine Himmelreich with a long, saline and perfectly round finish. This is a beautiful, classic Kabinett that deserves the highest praise. Picked below 80° Oechsle, this 2021 Himmelreich proves that sensory ripeness doesn’t need a refractometer to show complexity and style. 7.5% stated alcohol. Natural cork. Tasted at the domaine in July 2022." 96, Stephen Reinhardt, Wine Advocate

Riesling from Kamptal, Kamptal
"Sourced from 60-year-old vines, Hiedler's 2021 Ried Heiligenstein 1ÖTW Riesling shows clear, open, bright and elegant fruit with herbal as well as earthy notes of broken rock. Juicy, intense and dense in the mouth, this is a powerful and firmly structured, still somewhat bitter Heiligenstein that needs some time to develop its full size. It's undoubtedly a great Riesling from the Kamptal. 13% stated alcohol. Natural cork. Tasted in Grafenegg in September 2022." 94+ Points, Stephen Reinhardt, Wine Advocate

Schloss Gobelsburg Tradition Heritage Cuvee 50 Years NV, .750L
Gruner Veltliner / Riesling / Grüner Sylvaner / Muskat Sylvaner / Riesling Sylvaner / Welschriesling / Muskat Ottonen / Trainer / Muskateller from Kamptal, Kamptal
"Intensely golden-yellow in color, the NV Tradition Heritage Cuvée 50 Years Edition 850 blends several grape varieties and a wide range of vintages from the last 50 years, starting with the 1970 vintage. The nose opens precise, lean and fresh, with bright and spicy fruit and flinty notes. On the palate, this treasure is crystalline, tight, reductive and very elegant, with a long and tensioned finish. This Jubilee edition reveals remarkable finesse and grip and represents the historical spirit and substance of the castle. Due to the matured wines from the 1970s and 1980s, this is a leaner, more filigreed style than the newer assemblages that contain only barrel-stored reserve wines from the Michael Moosbrugger era. The wine is doubtlessly very impressive. To create the blend, many bottles of the wine library were opened, tasted and decanted into small vessels that were then, little by little, blended into a cuvée. "It demands a clarity of vision and long years of experience with the wines of the Danube River region to compose a cuvée of this style," says Moosbrugger. "The different soils and the various grape varieties demand an understanding of their nature and their functionality in a blend, in order to create a wine like this."
Thirty-three percent of the cuvée is from vintages of the most recent decade (2011, 2013, 2014 and 2017), 37% from 2000, 2002-2005, 2007 and 2009), 7% from the 1990s (1991, 1993, 1994, 1996, 1998, 1999), 12% from the 1980s (1980, 1981-1984, 1986, 1987, 1989) and 11% from the 1970s (1970, 1971, 1973, 1974, 1977 und 1979). As Michael Mooesbrugger says, "The Jubilee cuvée combines 25 years of monastic culture with 25 years of modern wine culture." (Moosbrugger started at Schloss Gobelsburg in 1996, so exactly 25 years ago.)..." 98 Points, Stephen Reinhardt, Wine Advocate

Max Ferd. Richter Riesling Estate 2021, 0.75L
Riesling from Mosel, Mosel
The 2021er Richter Estate Riesling, as it is referred to on the consumer label, is an off-dry wine (with 28 g/l of residual sugar) made from young vines in the Grand Cru vineyards Brauneberger Juffer, Erdener Treppchen, and Graacher Himmelreich. It offers a superbly spicy and zesty nose with good complexity as scents of anise, smoke, minty herbs, white peach, cassis, and licorice. The wine is delicately playful on the palate as some fine and tickly acidity gives focus to the nicely aromatic palate. The finish is airy, fresh, and lead by flavors of anise and candied grapefruit.

The wine coats the palate with gorgeously ripe and juicy notes of fruits and leaves a superbly pure, smooth, and almost soft and suave feel in the hugely long finish. The aftertaste is still loaded with sweetness in need of integration, which will need quite some time to integrate. There is upside potential as the wine gains finesse with age." 93+ Points, Mosel Fine Wines

"The 2020er Wehlener Sonnenuhr Riesling Auslese GK was made from shriveled rather than botrytized fruit and was fermented down to noble-sweet levels of residual sugar. It offers a most gorgeous, superbly complex, and rather subtle nose of minty herbs, candied grapefruit, fine honeyed peach, anise, smoke, and herbs. The wine proves much richer and riper on the palate, where plenty of exotic and ripe fruits join the party. This fruity, smooth, and juicy side is nicely wrapped into zest and tension in the very long finish. Expect more than a decade of patience to get the full impact of this stunning wine. But you will not regret." 95 Points, Mosel Fine Wines

The wine is very delicate and rather smooth on the spicy and suave palate. The finish proves tight and lean as some fine zesty elements come through and add a very playful and truly Kabinett footprint.

"The 2018 Ried Burgstall Riesling Federspiel is super clear and fresh on the aromatic nose with its perfectly ripe white peach and apricot aromas. Salty, pure and fresh on the crunchy, nicely reductive palate, this is a precise dry Riesling with grip and tension. Tasted after the 2017 and 2018 Unendlich Veltliners, this is a great refreshment but not easy to evaluate exactly. However, it can still stand, and that's not the worst sign. It is ripe and fresh but not green or vegetal, just grippy and refreshingly racy. Tasted at the domain in September 2019." Stephen Reinhardt, Wine Advocate

The growth in the vineyards reflected this, with early budbreak and very early flowering. To ensure that our wines retained their cool-climate character, we started the harvest in mid-September. In the end we were thrilled not just with the residual sugar levels across the entire range, but also with the fine, elegant acidity and perfect physiological ripeness of the grapes that will express itself beautifully in these wines."

von Schubert Maximin Grunhauser Abtsberg Kabinett 2020, 0.75L
Riesling from Mertesdorf, Ruwer
"There is a distinct difference between the three Kabinetts, and the Abtsberg evokes the image of an abbot with wide girth, ie the fuller body. The same can be said for the flavour, where the taste of orange reflects slightly riper fruit, but is never lacking in zest, and with a subtle nuance of bitter lemon, if that mundane association may be allowed. Smidgeons of butterscotch and cinnamon may be far-fetched, but add to the overall complexity." 17.5/20, Michael Schmidt, JancisRobinson.com
