2017 Bastgen Berncastel-Cueser Weisenstein Riesling Spatlese Trocken - 92 PTS - WE

wine enthusiast 92 pts"Fragrant yellow peach and melon notes are accented by earthy whiffs of crushed mineral and slate in this full bodied, luscious Riesling. Ripe yellow peach and apple flavors are rich and penetrating, offset by brisk acidity and a sleek, stony finish. A hedonistic wine to enjoy now through 2030. - Anna Lee C. Iijima"

2018 Bastgen Berncastel-Cueser Weisenstein Riesling Spatlese Trocken - 92 PTS - WE

wine enthusiast 92 pts"Bold notes of petrichor and struck flint abound in this intensely ripe but fully dry expression of 50-year-old grapes grown in slate. Flavors of white grapefruit and tart pineapple are juicy on the palate and linger long through a smoldering, smoky finish. Delightful now but should hold well through 2030. - ANNA LEE C. IIJIMA"

"This dry Mosel riesling is GG in all but name! Complex nose of white peach and red-fleshed vineyard peach with herb garden notes. Very elegant and polished this glides over your palate, the precision of flavor on the medium-bodied palate is very impressive. Then comes the wet stone and red berry finish that doesn’t want to stop. From organically grown grapes. Drink or hold."
