Egon Muller, Wiltinger Braune Kupp Riesling Auslese Goldkapsel Auktion, Mosel

Wow, this is ridiculously good. So much concentration, razor sharp, beautiful and elegant sweetness, framed by a superb acidity and minerality, immense length. Fermented and aged in large and old oak vats. Botrytised grapes are welcome in the Kabinett too, says Egon Müller. Medium+ intense aromas of peach, tangerine, dried apricot, orange zest, canned pineapple, lemon zest, honey, beeswax, flint, iron. Medium sweet wine, high acidity, medium body, pronounced flavours, lingering length. 9,5%

Fortsatt helt strålende.

Crystal clear and elegant. Sharp, but pure acidity. Intense and packed mouth feeling with great length.

Full-bodied for a Kabinett, with creamy texture, generous sweetness and above-average alcohol. Luckily, it also has brilliant acidity to balance, and crazy amounts of rusty iron/wet slate minerality. A light grapefruit-peel bitterness is notable but not at all disturbing. Lots of pleasure now, and surely even better in 2-5 years.

En del svovel? I alle fall litt eggepreg rett fra flaska. Men en fantastisk friskhet i munnen som munner ut i en herlig, sursøt finish hvor en også aner noen bittertoner. En flott kabinett.

Nydelig nese med epler, sitrus og lett tropiske innslag. Fin konsentrasjon, nydelig syrespill og herlig balanse. Leskende og herlig frisk med en touch sødme. Lang finish med flott syre og mineralkiling i munnhulen. En fantastisk kabinett! Kveldens beste match til salmalaks med mangosalat.

Very light color with a shade of green. On the nose, at first some sauerkraut but this dissipates with time. Then, rather reticent aromas of crushed rocks. In the mouth citrus, lots of grapefruit, lemon peel, poached pears. Eucalyptus, elderberry, and citrus on the finish. Great balance, huge acidity. Sweetness is aromatic rather than from residual sugar. Still very young!
