2016 Forster Ungeheuer Riesling Trocken Pfalz Reichsrat von Buhl Deidesheim

 

The colour is a  pale yellow. The nose exuded lemons and fresh pears.  On the palate we had lemons, touches of herbs,  pears, with quite a bit of a spritz.  It lacked depth and texture, but made a refreshing drink with quite a lot of acid. The finish lasted 30 seconds.

Drink until 2029.

3.25/5

Forster Ungeheuer  Beerenauslese


1997 Forster Ungeheuer Beerenauslese Deidesheim Rheinpfalz:  A faded bouquet is followed by a pleasant mix of a touch of orange with hints of caramel and a decent Botrytis load.   It is, however, quite thinned out now, but still a good drop.  A fading dowager.  Drink now.  January 2019.   3.25/5
