Keller, Westhofener Morstein Riesling Auslese Brut Zero Dark and imposing

Dark and imposing

one located in the premier cru Les Plantes

Note that my rating assumes that the nose will clean up as the sulfur and wood are absorbed

There is more here compared to the villages but it’s not quite as well balanced

Total tank time 15–23 days

Keller, Westhofener Morstein Riesling Auslese Brut Zero Dark and imposingNo botrytis. TA 12. 5 g l, RS 120 g l. Great site but younger vines than in the TBA. Much more smoky than the AbtsE Auslese. More complex and herbal on the nose, almost a little savoury, but still has intense, ripe citrus purity on the palate. Tastes much sweeter on the palate than the AbtsE, more sweet sour. Orange and apricot flavours go on and on. Far more fruit intensity on the palate than I expected from the nose. (JH)
