VM 93 (2/2016): Dark golden-yellow. Diesel fuel, baked apple, caramel and botanical herbs on the nose. Then tangy in the mouth, showing slightly high-toned aromas of orange oil, pineapple and sweet herbs. A very concentrated, big wine but with a fine-grained texture and just enough freshness on the long, saline, palate-staining finish. Less acid-dominated than I might have expected from a 2008. Drink between 2017-2030. Ian D'Agata.
WA 91 (5/2011): Scents and palate suffusion of iodine and shrimp shell reduction lend the Beyer 2008 Riesling Comtes d’Eguisheim every bit as minerally a cast – albeit of a very different sort – as its Ecaillers counterpart. High-toned whiffs of pit fruit distillates and mothball pique the nose. Saliva-inducing, saline savor is mingled with yellow plum and zesty grapefruit, while hazelnut, pistachio, and fruit pit add piquancy to an impressively sustained finish. This is a surprisingly voluminous rendition of Comtes d’Eguisheim, yet in its way also as minerally a one as you are likely to encounter. Expect it to be worth following for the better part of two decades. |

VM 95 (2/2016): Pale yellow-green. Vibrant aromas of mirabelle, lemon, crushed stone and fresh herbs, with a nuance of Chablis-like oyster shell. Densely packed and youthfully closed, even austere, but hints at lovely high notes of jasmine, lemon verbena and lichee. Wonderfully stylish and intense in the mouth, closing long and precise, with orange zest, mineral and spice notes. This will evolve gracefully for a long time. Ian D'Agata.
JS 95 (9/2015): Aromas of sliced apple, pear, lime rind and camembert. Full-bodied, dense and layered with so much ripe fruit and power. Then acidity takes off. Wow. Coming out next year.
WA 93 (5/2011): The combination of smoky pungency and citric brightness of Trimbach’s 2008 Riesling Clos Ste-Hune is almost eye-wateringly intense – and that’s just on inhaling! In the mouth, the dynamic interplay of energetic, efficacious citrus and white currant with chalk, salt, crushed stone, and apricot kernel will keep you stimulated and intrigued long after the flavors have faded, and that is already a long time. This buoyant, handsomely austere Ste-Hune will not require recharging over the next couple of decades, and in time should put on a truly spectacular display. |
