Tasting Note
The 2019 Wiltinger Braune Kupp Auslese is very clear, refined and flinty on the elegant and subtle nose with its rose petal and wood aromas, similar yet even finer than in the Spätlese to be auctioned. On the palate, this is a piquant, fresh and grippy Auslese with racy acidity that cuts the sweetness and pairs with the mineral backbone of this refined and frisky Auslese. The salinity and piquancy are already exciting yet still nervous and youthful—this should be an extremely buoyant Auslese in 20 years. Bottled with 7.5% alcohol. Tasted from AP 7-20 in June 2020 and reviewed by the Wine Advocate. Drink from 2035-2070.
Egon Müller has bottled an exceptional series of Rieslings from the Braune Kupp in Wiltingen. Rarely have I tasted these wines when they were on nearly the same level as the Scharzhofbergers, which are far more expensive. Buying the 2019s from Le Gallais is a must this year for all true Riesling aficionados. But you better hurry up because the yields were ridiculously low.
