This wine again kicked ass last night. That’s my tasting note.
2001. For the acidheads.
Is Prum not at the of the great wine values on planet earth relative to quality and consistent awesomeness?
Buy, buy, buy.
Wish that I knew what I know now, when I was younger.
Fill that cellar with Prum.
Rant over.
I bought some of this recently for $50/btl and I buy back-vintage JJP whenever I can find it. They age so gorgeously. They may well be the wine world’s best-value ageworthy wines.
I should say that I tend to like my rieslings with a lot of age. I’ve been drinking lower 02 Kabinetts, which are developing some real complexity. My sense of the few 01s I’ve had is that they were still sort of adolescent. I couldn’t tell from your note where you think this.
Yes, edited my post to clarify his 05 comments were “in general”. Good to hear they’re aging well. I bought a ton of 05 Donnhoff, might have to check in on a kabinett soon.
I have had the 2010 ghrs and although I committed wine infanticide and should be punished by being forced to drink a case (over a month) of Yellowtail riesling as punishment, it’s showing well with plenty of the 2010 acid which is why I adore that vintage.
