| GER-263. 03 MEDDERSHEIMER RHEINGRAFENBERG SPAT, H HEXAMER Wine & Spirits 92: ‘Meddersheim is a quiet little town way out on the western side of the Nahe Valley, where Harold Hexamer grows this massive riesling.

KREUZNACH |
| GER-274. 08 KREUZNACHER KRONENBERG SPAT, ST ANTONIUS Young, full, very firm framed. Hints of stone fruit, lemon verbena, flowers. Not yielding near as much as the 07. Tasted younger?/ Apple, peach, some kiwi, nectarine. Soft and sweetish. Acidity still coated. This needs a few months. 89+/100. |
| How Many bottles/singles: 8.49 each |
| GER-275. 08 KREUZNACHER KAHLENBERG SPAT, P ANHEUSER Very fresh. Honey and white fruits–peach, papaya. Very cool, crisp, and classic Kahlenberg. All the beauty that a prime Kreuznach site can give. Surprisingly accomplished at this point./ Peach, tropics, flowers, potpourri. This is complex. Spatlese intense and sweet and rich. Underdeveloped, of course, but not out of balance. Good sweetness and acidity in harmony. Terrific. 92+/100. |

JOHANNISBERG |
| GER-311. 06 JOHANNISBERGER KLAUS KAB, KRAYER Fresh and young. Lively, lilting, exotic, floral perfumes. Peach, melon, and golden citrus./ Fresh, cool, racy, and charming. More retarded than the Winkeler. Sugar will do that. Less verve, more roundness and depth. And bouquet potential. 90+/100. |
| How Many bottles/singles: 11.99 each |
| GER-312. 07 JOHANNISBERGER KLAUS AUS, KRAYER Full, spicy, minerally, sweet, ripe, golden./ Yes full bodied auslese stuff. Good strength and presence. The acidity remains coated, so this doesn’t deliver the fruit-juiciness so many of the 07 kabinetts and spatleses have shown us, especially the Mosels. No problem. Just needs time. Well liked by the group, some of whom commented this was the best Krayer wine they’d tasted. Actually, I think this is the first time we’ve done one of his ausleses. 92+/100. |
| How Many bottles/singles: 18.99 each |
| GER-313. 07 JOHANNISBERGER ERNTEBRINGER KAB, KRAYER Golden Rheingau qualities of orange, flowers, and rare earth. Inviting and open fruitiness of 07./ Again, plenty of pleasurable fruit, nicely countered by 07's other virtue: great acidity, verve, extract. Good now and promising at least a couple more years’ bouquet development. 90+/100. |
