Vinous (95)This represents the best cask of Braune Kupp Spätlese, and it’s worth noting that in numbering it for registration purposes, Müller anticipated presenting it in his vintage lineup after the corresponding Scharzhofberger. The deeply ripe fresh purple plum and cherry fruit and the dark, ore-like, mysteriously mineral themes of this year’s Braune Kupp Kabinett are perpetuated here. Smoky and savory hints of Latakia tobacco, along with pronounced piquancy of fruit pit, add to the low-toned, brooding personality of a richly textured and resonantly persistent beauty. My experience with mature Müller Rieslings is almost entirely confined to Scharzhofberger bottlings, which are the wines that get more widely collected as well as those he graciously opens for visitors, so I can only wonder aloud whether the amazing 2014 vintage Braune Kupp Rieslings will keep pace over time with their Scharzhofberg counterparts. |

Vinous (94)Purple plum is wreathed in mint and bergamot for a haunting nose and a luscious, subtly cooling palate impression. The feel is glossy. Sweetness rises on the midpalate, but is checked by an influx of grapefruit juiciness and mouthwatering mineral salts on a penetrating finish whose vibrant persistence is enhanced by a lick of cinnamon stick. This was picked in early October with a high percentage of healthy grapes. |

Vinous (94)Even as we get to Spätlese level in the present collection, there is a delightfully cooling aspect to the 2020 Riesling Wiltinger Braune Kupp Spätlese A.P. #5 Le Gallais, here engendered by pear and honeydew melon laced with brown spices, but also lime, mint and basil. The buoyant midpalate impression is succulent as well as silken, with suggestions of quince preserves and marzipan emphasizing the ripeness and very lightly botrytized nature of the fruit without sacrificing the cooling elements or citric brightness. Somehow the lusciously lingering finish manages to be stimulating yet soothing and caressing. Citrus zest, cinnamon and mace serve for welcome counterpoint, but here is one of those rare instances at this address where I have the impression of slight excess sweetness that needs time to integrate. |

Vinous (89)Apple seed and apple wood accents lend decisive counterpoint on both nose and palate to the 2020 Riesling Scharzhof’s dominant, crunchy apple and zesty lemon fruit. Suggestions of apple blossom hover throughout. The feel is firm, and the lingering finish offers refreshment as well as stimulating cut and piquancy. (The source vineyards for this large cuvée are once again largely Saarburger Rausch, Wiltinger Braunfels and Oberemmeler Rosenberg.) |

Wine Advocate (98)Egon Müller's 2017 Scharzhofberger Auslese (AP #7) offers fascinating crunchy, perfectly ripe, almost oily Riesling and dark slate aromas with some iron and herbal notes. This nose represents perfect ripeness, and that’s what you get on the palate: a lush, crystalline and flinty, mouthwateringly salty, fresh and piquant Riesling of great class, complexity and style. Gosh, this is a beautiful and seductive Scharzhofberger of which I wish I had a fuder in my cellar. Absolutely marvelous and a must-taste (or have). Tasted in June 2019. |

Wine Advocate (97)The 2018 Scharzhofberger Auslese (AP #8) is coolish, clear, intense and concentrated on the flinty and even rocky nose with its crunchy notes of broken slate and lemon juice. On the palate, this is a generous, highly elegant and refined, beautifully balanced and salty-crystalline Auslese with concentrated but detailed, elegant fruit, finely grained minerals and a long, complex finish. An impressive, great vin de terroir. Tasted in June 2019. |

Vinous (97)The 2023 Riesling Scharzhofberger Auslese, made from botrytized fruit that's juicy but not shriveled, offers a nose of candied orange peel dipped in clear honey with hints of dried apricot and a light vestige of smoke. The palate is intensely sweet, featuring candied peach and lemon peel that tingle and make the mouth water with their exquisite sharpness. Tautness and tension define the light body, creating a heightened drama of absolute acid and sugar. |

Vinous (95)The substantial share of healthy fruit that was picked for this manifests itself in brightly fresh white peach and pear, alongside a syrupy element and jellied quince that point toward the nobly rotten portion of the harvest. Rather than a whiff of mushroom, as had been the case with the two “regular” Auslesen of this collection, here there are musky, intriguingly animal manifestations of botrytis. The feel is glossy, subtly creamy, the finish rapier in its penetration and focus, yet setting one’s whole mouth quivering with the vibrant energy by now familiar from other Müller 2018s. I can’t see any reason why lucky owners should insist on deferring the pleasure of this wine’s acquaintance, but I am also quite confident that the wine itself, not just that pleasure, will be long-lived. (A second gold capsule Auslese, the A.P. #11, was auctioned.) |

Vinous (91)A penetrating nose features gooseberry, cassis, apricot and apple, and suggestions of seeds and pits – as well as a nettle-like prickle – lend invigorating crunch and piquancy to the brightly animating, cheek-scouring acidity that emerges on the palate. But even as you feel the impact of the acids, there is a sheer juiciness that keeps them from turning uncomfortably severe. And the penetrating finish here, predictably, delivers a decisive impression of wet stone and displays admirable balance as regards sweetness. This sole “regular” Müller Kabinett of its vintage (there’s also an Alte Reben bottling) has plenty of cellar potential. And it makes up nearly half of this year’s combined Scharzhofberg and Braune Kupp production. |

Vinous (93)The “regular” 2020 Riesling Scharzhofberger Kabinett (bearing A.P. #3) leads with quince and peach accented by mint, cress, ginger and lemon, setting up an overall impression of coolness, but also of brightness, with stimulating cut and pungency analogous to that of the corresponding Braune Kupp. In the background is a greenhouse-like amalgam of flowers and foliage. The phenolic concentration here belies a vintage with relatively generous yields even as the efficacious acidity and levity defy preconceptions concerning a year marked by summer heat and drought. The multifaceted finish, transparent to wet stone underpinnings, is tongue-tinglingly vibrant. Here is a Riesling Kabinett to really grab and hold your attention even as it delivers consummate refreshment and a bit of thought-provoking intrigue to accompany its entertainment value. |
