I never imported German red wine from Mosel region until this year. What changed my mind? As a wine merchant, I trusted my own instincts and of course the result of tasting the wine.
After all these years, with a little bit help of the weather in the direction of warmer temperature in this region, better red wine is a matter of time. I was very lucky to be able to taste this vintage directly in the cellar, the Wow effect was huge and full of surprise; they are rich but not wild, full body but not overloaded and most important to me is it remains a level of elegance.
Compare to the Wajos` 2014 Spaetburgunder which is the one I like very much at the time when I visited Michael Oster winery in May 2017, this bottle is in more premium quality, With 12 months the barrique “gereift” (matured)
