Life is too short to drink bad wine

German Riesling comes in many different styles pending on area and sugar level. Trocken (dry) is the dry version often with lots of  fruit and a crisp acidity. Mosbacher, producer in Pfalz in Germany, has many different styles based on the geographical location of the vines. This one is from Wachenheimer with a special sandy soil. At first a very petroleum like smell, maybe from the skins of the grapes in a warm vintage? but the day after that had gone and it was more towards ripe apples, flowers and tropical fruit. The taste is beautifully balanced with lots of fruit and perfect acidity. Slightly high in sugar (just below 9g/l). Lovely wine that can be used as an aperitif or with white meat, fish and certain spicy foods. Georg Mosbacher Riesling 2015 Bundsandstein, Wachenheimer Ca 240 NOK or 14€

What an exciting wine? More than 50 years old! Omg... The colour of this wine was more sherry like coloured with a pale rim. The smell was a bit caramelised with buttery overtones. Overall still a very nice balanced wine with a pronounced acodity. Somewhat old in style with tones of sherry. A great experience. Deidesheimer Reiss Riesling Spatlese 1959 Pfalz Dr.Burklin Wolf
