WTN: '09 Meulenhof Riesling Spatlese Alte Reben

[David M. Bueker]

2009 Meulenhof Erdener Treppchen Riesling Spätlese Alte Reben
Delicious. It verges on the lush tropical, but has enough acidity and brightness to restrain the richness and then pick up a more citrus focused aspect in the finish. Typically big for spatlese (what isn't these days), it went very well with a slightly spicy red curry. Excellent value as usual for Meulenhof. Drink now or for a long, long time.

Thanks for the note, David.
It seems like the lovely, lush fruit still is not closing down in the Mosel '09s.
Cheers,
Anders

They may be closing down a bit. This was much more open and expressive on night two when we had the last glass.

Meulenhof's 2009s are so, so good. Glad I went long on this and the Wehlener Sonnenuhr Auslese.

Wish I had...

Luckily Stefan Justen still makes wine!

David -

Thank you for the note. Sounds like a very nice wine.
