€ 30,00 INC. VAT The Zeltinger Schlossberg is the slope adjacent to the Zeltinger sundial. So top of the top. It is the steepest section of this slope from which the wine is obtained, over 80 years old root-true vines in single stake education with the most extreme orientation. Unlike the Zeltinger Sonnenuhr, the Schlossberg is more clearly at home in the slate. The nose is clearly dominated by flint, wet slate. Stone, minerality and salt in the foreground. The whole thing is underpinned by a flower meadow, mirabelle, light reneklode, also a bit of quince, a touch of orange peel and lime underneath. More to the mineral than to the citrus fruit. Molitor loves the elegance, loves the minerality far more than the extreme fruit drive. Flint and wet granite to it, slate in the most massive form, with fine quince and stone fruit rolling up again.

From the uppermost of Hühnerberg’s three broad terraces, this one-star Spätlese leads delightfully with ripe white peach and mirabelle garlanded in diverse flowers, including the orange blossoms that Müllen considers typical of wines from that terrace. The delicate, tender, polished midpalate adds a hint of raw almond, leading to a lusciously lingering finish admirably transparent to shimmering wet stone as well as mouthwateringly mingled with mineral salts. Here’s one Müllen 2018 that I don’t have any worries about recommending for extended cellaring. Amusingly, he says it is one of several wines that he wanted to go dry – but I’m happy that it had other ideas. The situation was actually unusual, as Müllen related: “By late February or early March it seemed that this just didn’t want to ferment any further. But I thought, maybe if I just give it some time… So it lay nearly five months on the lees, naturally without SO2, but it never budged. And when I detected a slight hint of oxidation in the wine as sampled from the top of the cask, I knew which way its full contents were headed and that it was time to bottle.” Why award this wine just a single star? I can only conclude that Müllen doesn’t quite share my high opinion of it.

Overripe pear and lychee on the nose take on a syrupy impression on the polished, soft, subtly creamy and delicate palate. The finish accentuates the impressions of vanilla and liquid lily perfume that were already noted in this year’s "two-star" Hühnerberg Spätlese. And here, too, there is enough juiciness that the caressingly sustained, lush finish doesn’t become cloying. Müllen would certainly take issue with my assessment of ageworthiness, but while it’s going to take a long time for this wine’s superficial sweetness to back off, I am not convinced that the wait will pay significant dividends in complexity. Müllen is currently much enamored with the evolution of his vintage 2003 Spätlesen and Auslesen, with their softness of feel, prominent sweetness and confectionary, caramel-tinged character. Oenophiles who share his high opinion of those traits in Mosel Riesling may well feel rewarded by patient cellaring of a 2018 like this one. (Yet-riper sweet wines from the Hühnerberg – along with other nobly sweet wines from Müllen’s vintage 2018 collection – will be tasted in late 2020 and reviewed as part of a subsequent report.)

Honeysuckle and heliotrope on the nose deliver site-typical allure. The palate feels surprisingly firm, though it exudes generously juicy apple. Piquancy of apple seed and the bitter aspect of vanilla bean serve for welcome counterpoint on a lusciously fruited finish admirably transparent to wet stone. I suspect that this installment of “Fuder #6” will grow in stature given a few years in bottle.

The 2021 Dolce & Gabbana Trancredi is youthfully coiled, holding its power in reserve. It opens with a hauntingly dark bouquet of mentholated herbs, cocoa, gravel dust and dried black cherries. Elegant in style, it offers silken textures and depths of ripe red and black fruits, which gain tension as saline mineral tones and a bitter dark chocolate saturation amass toward the close. Tannic and staining, the 2021 finishes long and classically dry, leaving a resonance of blackberry and a hint of sage to linger. Currently wrapped up tight and in need of cellaring.

This marries fruit from the uppermost of Müllen’s four terraces in Hühnerberg with fruit from below the terraced section (the same steep sector that yielded this year’s impressive “no star” Spätlese trocken). Pineapple, white peach and mint mingle on the nose with site-typical suggestions of woodsmoke. The silken palate is at once soothingly cooling and tinglingly invigorating, with sweetness supportively judged without trying to become a dominant player in its own right. Hints of quince and caramel point to advanced ripeness (with a trace of botrytis) and are gorgeously complemented by the wine’s textural richness and subtle sweetness on a lusciously lingering finish. The balance of richness with fresh fruit juiciness and the impeccable balance of sweetness are features I have generally missed in residually sweet Müllen bottlings of past vintages. (Whether or not this wine’s vineyard origins or the fact that it is the collection’s sole sweet Hühnerberg Spätlese account for its being labeled without stars, don’t let that mislead you – even if Müllen encourages this – to anticipate less than top quality.)

The 2021 Barbera d'Asti Superiore Bionzo is redolent of blackberry, gravel, incense, licorice, graphite and dark spice. As always, the Bionzo is a brooding Barbera from Asti although these days the wines aren't as huge as they were just a few years ago.

The 2021 Barbera d'Alba Gallina is pretty impressive in this vintage. Dark and potent, with terrific persistence, the Gallina has plenty of texture that has always been a signature but without the heaviness and strong oak imprint that was at times penalizing. Dark red/purplish fruit, lavender, licorice, mocha and rose petals scream out of the glass. Pretty floral top notes brighten the finish.
