Hi-Time's Top German Wines of 2024
"Egon Muller is clearly in love with his 2021 vintage. When prompted, he mentioned that the vintage reminds him most of 1971 because of the fruit intensity and the firm acidity: "What strikes me most is the fruit purity and intensity..." Mosel Fine Wines.
MOSEL FINE WINES 96 POINTS - "The 2021er Scharzhofberger Riesling Kabinett is a barely fruity-styled wine with a bright white-yellow color and a stunningly pure nose of white peach, citrusy fruits, white flowers, smoke, and a subtle dash of whipped cream. The wine proves stunningly vibrant on the almost off-dry tasting palate and leaves great notes of fresh herbs and spices in the long finish. The aftertaste is to die for as it proves airy, elegant, precise, and incredibly persistent. What a great success! The only downside is that one will need to be a bit patient and give the wine a few years in the bottle in order to allow it to integrate the touch of tartness currently floating around. 2029-2041"
JAMES SUCKLING 94 POINTS - "Wonderful honeysuckle and jasmine aromas pour from the glass of this very racy and crystalline Kabinett. As sharp and bright as a samurai sword, each swirl of the glass reveals new aromas, sushi ginger and dill only being the most obvious. Drink or hold."
