Egon Muller 1976 Scharzhofberger Spatlese Riesling
94 Points, John Gillman
The 1976 Scharzhofberger Spätlese still drinks beautifully and has many years of life ahead. Its bouquet offers a complex blend of lemon curd, baked peaches, leather, and stony minerality, with a hint of lavender. On the palate, the wine is medium-bodied, balanced, and focused, with a mature sweetness closer to Kabinett level. Poised with good acidity and depth, this superb Spätlese promises to age gracefully for years to come.
Egon Muller 2003 Scharzhofberger Kabinett Riesling
This wine displays a light green-yellow hue with an inviting nose of peach and subtle vegetal undertones. On the palate, it is light and refreshing, with juicy notes of stone fruit, ripe pineapple, and a hint of baby banana. The finish is layered with a fine veil of residual sugar, adding depth and a touch of sweetness. A delicate lemony note lingers, bringing a balanced freshness to the close.
