2011 is a great tribute to the Haut-Bailly terroir, expressed fully through the characteristics of this vintage. A classic nose of soft fresh fruits supported by a strong yet fine tannic structure; this is a wine of real precision, stamped with the seal of Haut-Bailly.

This has some slightly rugged grip, with a prominent charcoal frame. Delivers ample flesh at the core, offering plum cake, currant preserves and smouldering tobacco leaf notes, offset by a tangy hint of anise. Should settle in well enough after modest cellaring.

Riesling Beerenauslese from the VDP classified side Herrenberg in Oppenheim, Rheinhessen. Chalk soil condition located close to the St. Kathrin cathedral in the city of Oppenheim. Natural sweetness, amber colour; opulent nose with aromas of dried peaches and mango and honey.

Bernkasteler Badstube Riesling Beerenauslese smells of liqueur-like, jellied, vanilla- and chocolate-covered purple plums and black cherries. The implosive palate concentration though is simply beyond “liqueur-like” and into realms I can’t recall. Strong brown spices, herbal concentrates add complexity and a buttery, creamy texture does not prevent this wine from preserving the most remarkable clarity of jellied pit fruit concentration, photo-electric brilliance of fruit acids lighting the way to an endless finish.
