Muller-Catoir Riesling (Dry) Burgergarten Im Breumel GG 2019 - First Bottle

Reviews

98 James Suckling -
Like the first rosebud of the season that has fully colored, but is only just beginning to open up, this is full of promise. Densely packed with minerals and positive tannins that are neatly wrapped in creaminess from lees contact, this is locked into its own time frame. You really need to give it a lot of air for the mirabelle, nectarine and mandarin notes to emerge. Then there's a stunning interplay of fruit and structure through the long, very complete finish. From organically grown grapes. Better after 2021..

** Quick note: we’re drinking this with crab, and...OMG. ** Normally $85-ish, our connection in Europe hooked us up with a few cases of the rare "Im Breumel" Riesling GG, and it is nothing short of spectacular. An epic treat for the senses!!

Wow. Where to start? The mineral. The purity. The sheer complexity and the way it electrifies the palate. It’s creamy, but it’s laser-sharp. Silky, but firm. Truly exceptional riesling from start to its long finish. The newest GG bottling for the winery which happens to be a monopole for Mûller-Catoir. The vineyard is situated inside the Bürgergarten. The subsoil of this vineyard is mostly crushed rock and crushed sandstone, with very old vines. Well, enough of our gushing, check out Stuart Piggott's rave review for JamesSuckling.com below! Side note: Stuart wrote an incredible book called, "Best White Wine on Earth: The Riesling Story" that is a must read for anyone who loves riesling as much as we do!/p>
