Bid on this 3-bottle lot of 2003 Willi Schaefer Graacher Domprobst Riesling Spätlese Auction #19 Mosel (91JG). John Gilman: "I do not know how this has happened, but the Spätlese AP #19 from the Schaefers that was sold at the auction in Trier is the first example of the 2003 vintage that I have tasted from their estate. It is a very lovely wine in the riper, exotic style of this vintage, as it delivers a classy nose of yellow plum, peach, a touch of fresh fig, candied violets, slate, honeycomb and a very gentle hint of orange blossom up high. On the palate the wine is full-bodied, pure, fresh and quite light on its feet for the vintage, with sound framing acids, lovely complexity and good length and grip on the finish. The wine is fairly broad-shouldered for a Schaefer Spätlese, but it retains the signature elegance of this fine estate. " (07/2010)

Bid on this bottle of 1973 Weingut Robert Weil Kiedricher Gräfenberg Riesling Beerenauslese Eiswein Rheingau. Dr. Robert Weil purchased his first vineyards in 1867. Originally a professor of German at the Sorbonne in Paris, he found his vinous calling when he returned to his native Germany during the Franco-Prussian war. The estate has passed hands from father to son for four generations, with Robert's great grandson, Wilhelm, currently at the helm. The Kiedricher Gräfenberg vineyard was originally known as the "Mountain of the Rhinegraves, " and has produced wines for the tables of European nobility and grand hotels since the 19th century. The vineyard owes its success to the stony, fragmented soils of phyllite, loess, and loam, which create excellent water retention. Weil's Kiedricher Gräfenberg wines display an intense minerality and powerful personality, built for long cellaring.

Bid on this 3-bottle lot of 2007 Dönnhoff Norheimer Kirschheck Riesling Spätlese Nahe (94RP, 92ST, 92WS). Robert Parker's Wine Advocate: "As usual with Donnhoff's renditions of this site, his 2007 Norheimer Kirschheck Riesling Spatlese displays a profusion of flowers (buddleia, rose lily, and cherry blossom) on the nose and cherry fruit and citrus on the palate that combine for an irresistible charm offensive. This silken, pure Riesling is suffused not only with wafting floral perfume, but with saline, savory, scallop-like mineral notes that add to its utterly lip-smacking, saliva-inducing brand of refreshment. Here's a great example of residually sweet Riesling possessing not one gram more than needed for maximum support of its aromas and fruit flavors, so that sweetness per se is the last thing you have on your mind as you reach for the next sip.

Bid on this 2-bottle lot of 2001 Joh. Jos. Prüm Wehlener Sonnenuhr Riesling Auslese Goldkapsel Mosel. With its steep, grapevine-spiked slopes composed of pure, weathered devon slate soils, Wehlener Sonnenuhr is one of the Mosel's most iconic vineyards. Dr. Manfred Prüm made very favorable comparisons of the 2001s to 1990 and 1999, but with riper more compact acidity and minimal botrytis (except in the GKA). Fermented with indigenous yeast, this is intense, packed with tropical fruit aromas and flavors with tell-tale smoky, petrol notes. It has a long life ahead. 97 points from Jean Fisch and David Rayer for Mosel Fine Wines: "This offers a bright yellow color and a most beautiful nose of yellow peach, mango, passion fruit and white flowers. Far from being powerful, this has the delineation of a Spätlese, with the complexity and depth of a great feine Auslese. " (04/2011)

Bid on this 3-bottle lot of 2007 Willi Schaefer Graacher Himmelreich Riesling Spätlese #14 Mosel (92RP, 91JG). Robert Parker's Wine Advocate: "A 2007 Graacher Himmelreich Riesling Spatlese continues in the sappy, juicy mold of the Domprobst A.P. #12. Fresh apple (think of the best Normandy cider) mingles with anise and vanilla. The freshness here is combined with a relatively spare texture; and the finish surprises with the intensity and length of salt and stone that accompany its sheer refreshment. In fact, if wine can be profoundly refreshing, here is a case in point. This bracing young Spatlese is likely to undergo more dramatic changes in bottle, I predict, than many of the other Schaefer wines of the vintage. But I would not hesitate to plan on charting those changes over the next 20 years. (DS)" (06/2009)
Bid on this 3-bottle tasting lot; including 2-bottles of 2005 Joh. Jos. Prüm Wehlener Sonnenuhr Riesling Spätlese Mosel (95WE, 95WS, 94W&S, (92-93RP), 93VN) and 1-bottle of 2007 Joh. Jos. Prüm Wehlener Sonnenuhr Riesling Spätlese Mosel (95W&S, 92JG). Of the 2005 Joh. Jos. Prüm Wehlener Sonnenuhr Riesling Spätlese Mosel, Wine Enthusiast writes: "Leesy and sulfury, this wine is fully possessed of the 'Prüm stink', yet equally obvious is its incredible intensity and depth. Waves of tropical fruit--think guava and pineapple--cascade over the palate, yet the sweetness is beautifully balanced by acidity. Tremendously concentrated and long on the finish, this should easily live 20 years or more. (JC)" (06/2007)
Bid on this 3-bottle lot of 2005 Joh. Jos. Prüm Graacher Himmelreich Riesling Auslese Mosel (95VN, 95WS, 94JG, (93-94RP), 94WE). Vinous: "Pale golden yellow. Restrained aromas of yellow plum, quince jelly and acacia honey, with a hint of spicy botrytis. Pure, rich and complex on the palate, with subtle nut oil and brown spice notes giving a lightness to the creamy custard flavor. The lift and delicacy persist on the bright, stylish, succulent and very long finish. (JP)" (01/2007)

Bid on this bottle of 1959 Schloss Vollrads Riesling Beerenauslese Fass 92 Rheingau. A rare gem of a Beerenauslese from a great vintage in a poor decade. Schloss Vollrads has over 800 years of history, making 10 to 15 different Riesling wines annually. They pick their grapes on 80 hectares of vineyards that descend south down to the Rhine river very carefully by hand, several times per season, in order to collect them at precisely the right degree of ripeness.
