NACKENHEIM


GER-334. 06 NACKENHEIMER ROTHENBERG SPAT, GUNDERLOCH
Wine Spectator 92: ‘Intriguing spice and mineral aromas and flavors highlight the apricot, passion fruit and pineapple core notes. Concentrated, yet lively, with a long, resonant, mineral-tinged finish. Now-2025.’
How Many bottles/singles: 39.99 each

GER-335. 06 NACKENHEIMER RIESLING KAB DRY, BINZ
Just enough plumpness plus trocken briskness. Tingles the nostrils. This is very racy for Rheinhessen and 06. With air, it fills to peach, loquat, and apple. Turns fat and sassy like a proper 06. Impressive, really./ Dry but with the largesse of spatlese. Both very racy fruit acidity and a nice touch of tenderness–not a stark trocken, well padded. Zingy and fine finish. Great value on closeout. Very well liked by the group. 90/100.

GER-337. 05 NACKENHEIMER SCHEUREBE SPAT, BINZ
Whoa! Big time flowers and tropical fruits facets of scheu. Intense, pure, unique. Exuberant, ripe, exotic, perfumed./ Sweet and concentrated. Very bright 05 purity and intensity of varietal character. A different face of scheu from the above. Shows the potential range of this variety. Wow! Totally complex and seductive. Like Hawaiian Punch Gold. After tasting the young Binz wines awhile back and now this one, I’m convinced this guy has turned to reductive winemaking in a big way, and his wines have taken a giant leap in quality since my early experiences with them. 92/100.

GER-355. 05 NIERSTEINER PATERBERG SPAT, J STRUB
Terry Theise: ‘In ‘05 there’s less lemon-grass and more a sort of sweet celeriac; it’s very long and adamantly spicy, with an inside-sweetness like roasted beets; picked very late with a hint of botrytis; crunchy and tasty. 7-19 years.’
