Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
A sweet, plump, succulent spätlese, Bastgen’s 2007 Auf den Felsen (on the rocks, referring to the section of the vineyard) features scents of aloe and lime, followed by apple and citrus flavors surrounding a mineral core. Mouthwatering on the finish.

Light to the point of lacking substance, with earthy, citrusy flavors that finish tart and short.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
While many dry wines from the Mosel are overly tart, this offering is a very pleasant exception. It is stony, minerally and a bit austere, offering up the barest hints of peach kernel and spice, but it’s also characterful. It finishes with good length, showing firmness alongside dried-spice notes.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
This rather lightweight kabinett is entirely in character for its classification. Even if many 2007 kabinetts are bigger and richer, Bastgen’s offers finely detailed flavors of honey, melon, peppery spice and crushed stones. Great apéritif wine.

Kestener Paulinshofberg - I usually like Spatlese Rieslings from Germany.  This winery was unfamiliar.  Very good wine.  Semi-Sweet.  Great fruit smell.  Inexpensive.  Wonderful find.
