For lovers of great dry Riesling
Last Friday I had the rare opportunity to attend a tasting of a double vertical of two of the best dry German Rieslings: Georg Breuer Berg Schlossberg and Rauenthaler Nonnenberg (monopole) from 1996-2008.
Vintages 1997, 2004, 2007 and 2008 are for sure amongst the finest dry Riesling ever produced in Germany! And the other vintages are also playing in the Champions league.
If you own some of these bottles: Give them air and time. All wines were double decanted at lunch time and e.g. 1997 could needed even more air when drunk at 10pm.
You can find some more impressions from myself and my valued wine friend Alper on CellarTracker:

The tasting took place right at the winery and the next morning we had the chance to visit the foggy Schlossberg with the wonderful Theresa Breuer herself:
