E Muller Scharzhofberg Spat 06

$146.10 750 MLS

94/100 WA. The 2006 Scharzhofberger Riesling Spatlese A.P. #7 is dominated by musk melon and honey, leading to a soft, silken-textured, seductively sweet and exotically-scented palate – mingling with savory mineral and faintly carnal notes – yet a palate possessed of remarkable delicacy and refinement, an impression enhanced by wafting, lingering musky, sweetly-perfumed suggestions of lily and honeysuckle. Despite the uncanny, levitating delicacy of this performance, a vivid sense of slate stone figures among the myriad, hard-to-capture mineral notes in the score. Instead of "out of the blue,” one says in German (literally) "out of a serene heaven.” That’s whence this Spatlese seems to have dropped into the bottle. It should be a delight over at least the next quarter-century.
