Egon Müller-Scharzhof Scharzhofberger A.P.#8 Riesling Auslese 2018

Description

The 2018 Scharzhofberger Auslese (AP #8) is coolish, clear, intense and concentrated on the flinty and even rocky nose with its crunchy notes of broken slate and lemon juice. On the palate, this is a generous, highly elegant and refined, beautifully balanced and salty-crystalline Auslese with concentrated but detailed, elegant fruit, finely grained minerals and a long, complex finish. An impressive, great vin de terroir. Tasted in June 2019. Drink date: 2020-2070. Score – 97. (Stephan Reinhardt, robertparker.com, Aug. 30, 2019)
