Yeah I bought magnums wherever possible for Kab and Spatlese.
I bought mags of Prum Auslese because I am planning on immortality.
There can be only one!
I have had Schooss Bueker declared as holy ground.
Good idea. Just be wary during trips to your offsite storage.
So when I visit Canmore in a few days, I am walking on hallowed ground?
Added a half case more of the Keller Limestone Qba, and sent the check for that case of Prum G-H Spatlese.
Probably Zilliken, Prum, Schloss Lieser, Shafer-Frolich, von Schubert, Rheinhold Haart, Selbach and maybe one or two others.
Haven’t yet gone deep into 2015s, but I’ve been buying up pretty much all the 2015 Keller that has come in to Houston (Limestone, Kabinett, RR, Von Der Fels). The wife and I have been consuming it almost as quickly as we’ve been picking it up, so some efforts will need to be made to stockpile some for aging purposes.
So far:
Schäfer-Fröhlich Bockenauer Felseneck Riesling Kabinett
Schloss Lieser Brauneberger Juffer Riesling Kabinett
Schloss Lieser Niederberg Helden Riesling Spätlese
Willi Schaefer Graacher Domprobst Riesling Kabinett
Willi Schaefer Graacher Himmelreich Riesling Kabinett
Willi Schaefer Graacher Domprobst Riesling Spatlese #5
Willi Schaefer Graacher Himmelreich Riesling Auslese #4
Zilliken (Forstmeister Geltz) Saarburger Rausch Riesling Kabinett
Weiser-Künstler Riesling Spatlese Ellergrub
Julian Haart, Riesling Kabinett Piesporter Goldtröpfchen
Hofgut Falkenstein, Riesling Kabinett Krettnacher Euchariusberg
Hofgut Falkenstein, Riesling Niedermenniger Herrenberg Spätlese Feinherb
Peter Lauer Riesling Saar Barrel X
Too much to list. Probably a couple of hundred bottles.
Around 30% Kabinett, 30% Spatlese, 25% Auslese, 2-3% BA/TBA the rest dry.
About 20-30% up on average vintage purchases.
You’re my hero!!!
Quick question - does anyone know when the 2015s are likely to start arriving and shipping? With my storage/receiving address shifting and changing it’s become a matter of more immediate importance to me.

MacArthur’s here has a few, but don’t know when more are coming.
At the risk of tangential thread drift, can anyone recommend some of the better retailers for acquiring these?

Morrell recently had a sale that some of us got in on, and not just for Riesling. They still have some Keller Limestone and have a few pre-arrivals listed.
Robert at Down to Earth Wines is certainly worth contacting. I bought some Shafer-Froelich and Prüm from him.

Some have already arrived. Most will be over the next month or so.
My post complaining about shipments to Florida now were 2015 German Rieslings.
