Description

2022 Riesling, Auslese, Scharzhofberger, Egon Müller, Mosel, GermanyA cornucopia of ripe summer fruits and flowers pour from the glass of this spectacular Saar Auslese, its difficult to tear yourself away from the nose. Serious concentration on the medium to full bodied palate but in a self confidently relaxed manner. No drama, much less pomposity. Instead, ever more compelling as it flows over the palate. Fabulous textural complexity at the finely nuanced finish. Decades of ageing potential! Drink or hold. 98 100,

A higher than usual addition of Cabernet Franc in the blend (19%) has resulted in beautiful freshness

led by Merlot

and the fruit purity has not really come out to the extent of the 2018

500 bottles were made using just the oldest vines

with blackcurrant aromas and a hint of vanilla

it might just outclass the 2005

therefore a pure and completely unadorned expression of the quality of the fruit

There's huge density here within a light bodied frame

Cambridge Distillery never fails to turn any product into the best and most bonkers things it can be

There is no immediate gratification here

and 2012 is no exception
