Keller, Westhofener Morstein Riesling Auslese Brut Zero Dark and imposing

Dark and imposing

Spice-tinged black raspberry and cherry aromas are complicated by suggestions of cola

one located in the premier cru Les Plantes

where we drank several incredible 1966 Bordeaux (the standout being Cheval Blanc 1966 that could easily have featured here)

With a bit of aeration

Keller, Westhofener Morstein Riesling Auslese Brut Zero Dark and imposingNo botrytis. TA 12. 5 g l, RS 120 g l. Great site but younger vines than in the TBA. Much more smoky than the AbtsE Auslese. More complex and herbal on the nose, almost a little savoury, but still has intense, ripe citrus purity on the palate. Tastes much sweeter on the palate than the AbtsE, more sweet sour. Orange and apricot flavours go on and on. Far more fruit intensity on the palate than I expected from the nose. (JH)
