| WA 96 (2/2013): A riveting, high-toned aromatic diversity announces the Donnhoff 2011 Niederhauser Hermannshohle Riesling Spatlese with themes that inform an at once creamy yet subtly tannic and vibrant palate: quince, pear, lychee, nut oils, fusel oils, distilled herbal essences, brown spices, and smoky black tea. This behaves as if a bit of Traminer had been blended-in. The rich nuttiness and glaze of honey as well as sheer succulence of fruit make for a more opulent performance than that of Brucke, but to say that this is less energetic or dynamic would be misleading. Its incessant interplay of elements is utterly kaleidoscopic – just more calmly harmonious than the Spatlese from next door. Like that sibling, this deserves to be followed for a good quarter-century. |

| WA 93 (2/2013): The Donnhoff 2011 Oberhauser Brucke Riesling Auslese gold capsule represents a selection of partly-botrytized bunches pulled out before what remained was packed under film to await the first hard frost. Mango and papaya, quince and peach deliver an impression both tropical and northerly, with musky animal and smoky black tea scents adding intrigue, while alkaline, saline, and otherwise maritime nuances lend saliva-inducing counterpoint to this elixir’s sheer richness of fruit as well as its palate’s opulence, oily texture, and honeyed glaze. There is a glowing, soothing yet stimulating harmony to the finish, even if not the animation or spellbinding interactivity of this year’s Donnhoff Spatlesen. I would plan to follow it over the next 20-25 years. Donnhoff doesn’t disagree with me that this is 2011 first and Brucke second. “You can’t heighten the typicity of the site by means of botrytis,” he adds. “That reached its apex already in the Spatlese.” |

| WA 96 (2/2013): High-toned, distillate-like herbal extracts along with ripe fresh strawberry, apple and quince inform the scintillating nose and electrical charged palate of Donnhoff’s 2011 Oberhauser Brucke Riesling Spatlese. “We were able to just keep waiting on this site," he explains, “so that even this lightest wine from the Brucke was picked only in the last days of (regular) harvest." Hints of pits and seed, along with black tea, nut oils, zesty citrus, and myriad mineral impingements add to a sense of quickening that goes well beyond mere invigoration in this gem’s strikingly persistent, shimmeringly vibrant finish. I was left with salivary glands palpitating and arms covered in gooseflesh. It will probably be hard to resist such a wine at any point over the next quarter century, but those with the requisite remaining life expectancy should make an effort to defer for the duration the pleasure of at least the last bottle or two. |

WA 97 (4/2013): The Schloss Lieser 2011 Lieser Niederberg Helden Riesling Auslese Long Gold Capsule features nectarine, pineapple and pink grapefruit tinged with liquefied lily perfume, musk and brown spices in a manner that points toward noble, refined botrytis, although its author seeks to assure me that this came largely from tiny, healthy berries. Old-timers might well have called such an elixir a “Goldbeerenauslese” – Haag is reminded of its similarly healthy 1997 counterpart – and it’s certainly golden in more than one sense. Hints of nectarine skin and grapefruit rind lend welcome, subtly tart and piquant counterpoint on a luscious and creamy, not to mention virtually weightless palate, while a pure rivulet of fresh fruit juices and a streak of salt serve to guarantee that this remarkable libation’s prodigious persistence goes beyond mouthwatering and into the realm of mouth-agape drooling. Try to experience it soon, and again between 2025 and 2040.
VM 92 (1/2013): Vivid aromas of kiwi, toasted almond and lime oil, with a hint of brown-spice botrytis. Polished, elegant papaya fruit shows very good verve and flavor intensity. Mineral salts and sweet herbs join in a finish animated by a keen blade of slate. Joel B. Payne. |

Wehlener Sonnenuhr Riesling Auslese |
$85 |

WA 94 (4/2013): A yeasty, smoky prickle as well as the effect of dissolved CO2 causes the nose to wrinkle from a glass of Prum’s 2011 Wehlener Sonnenuhr Riesling Auslese A.P. #18, but behind that are heliotrope and lily-of-the-valley along with ripe apple, pear and melons that in turn inform a delicate, subtly creamy palate of striking transparency to stony, crystalline, alkaline and smoky black tea and liquid floral nuances. This shimmers and excites even as it soothes in a lingering, uplifting, glowing finish. It will certainly merit attention for the better part of a half century.
VM 91+ (1/2013): Pale golden yellow. Refined aromas of ripe peach, mango and acacia honey. Creamy and glossy in texture, with a glazed apricot flavor infused with sweet herbal spice. Richer and denser than the spatlese but not obviously better, and long on the finish. |
