German Wine Tasting Notes

1998 Dr. Burklin-Wolf Cuvee Christian
[Germany] Riesling estate
Score: 75.0
"Heavy, off-dry, one-dimensional fruit and rather disjointed. Disappointing from such a great producer. "
1998 Schloss Castell
Franken [Germany] Kerner qualitatswein
Score: 89.0
"Kerner is often innocuous, but this one is outstanding. Delicate, aromatic, just off-dry gooseberry flavors with light spice and a long tangy finish. I doubt you could pick this out of a blind tasting of New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc. First rate fish wine."
1998 Von Schleinitz Slatestone
Mosel Saar Ruwer [Germany] Riesling
Score: 85.0
"Ripe pippen apple nose and flavors enchanced with mineral character, barely sweet, clean and light. Use as an aperitif or with fish."
1998 Graf. Neipperg Schwaigern
Wurttemberg [Germany] Lemberger trocken
Score: 79.0
"Earthy, meaty, smokey notes predominate, while light berry fruit lurks in the background. Thin body, no tannin to speak of. This is a good red wine to serve chilled with hamburger."
