WTN: 2013 Beurer Rieslings

by Rahsaan » Sun Jul 19, 2015 2:47 pm

The past week I've been coming back to a case of 2013 Jochen Beurer rieslings, from Württemberg. I don't know the wines well enough to speak to how they are showing relative to other vintages. But, what I do know is that they are damned delicious.

Naturally the Gipskeuper is the easiest and the one that most easily pleased my in-laws, with its effusive charms (and I mean that in a verve-y nerve-y taut riesling way).

Schilfsandstein caused the in-laws a bit more confusion. Deeper but also more piercing mineral. Reminded me the most of Muscadet and makes me want further study.

Even more so for Kieselsandstein which shows broader depth and was certainly pleasant for me to drink, but I'm guessing the best days are ahead.

Junges Schwaben was perhaps deceptively delicious. I was so taken with the elegance and the finesse that it took me a while to notice that the structure was probably too tightly wound and would be better with age.

Of course what do I know.

I'll have to drink more to find out.

I've been drinking them in Germany but Selection Massale imports them to the US, and I believe they have a pretty broad selection of the wines. Certainly the main rieslings.
