Jacques Prieur, Chevalier Montrachet Blanc Size:3x750ml Mullers 2011 Scharzhofberger Riesling Auslese

Mullers 2011 Scharzhofberger Riesling Auslese delivers a penetrating and multifarious nose of heliotrope

with a small part in stainless steel just to loosen the wine's texture up a bit

fresh lime and almond form the core of a sappy matrix that persists through a vigorously sustained finish

This is no blockbuster

(from 45+ year old vines)

Jacques Prieur, Chevalier Montrachet Blanc Size:3x750ml Mullers 2011 Scharzhofberger Riesling Auslese(from a . 14 ha parcel). Here the nose is firmly reduced and unreadable though the underlying fruit does seem ripe. More interesting are the super sleek and intense larger scaled flavors that are admirably concentrated and quite powerful if perhaps a bit less mineral driven than usual on the sappy, complex and sneaky long finish.
