Muller Catoir Scheurebe Auslese Trocken Question

[Yule Kim]

I recently purchased an '89 Muller Catoir Mussbacher Eselshaut Scheurebe Auslese Trocken and I was wondering if anyone had any experience with MC Scheurebe trocken in general. In other words, how likely is this to be over-the-hill?

I recently had an '01 MC Haardter Burgergarten Riesling Spatlese Trocken which was incredible and thrilling, but different grape variety and 12 years younger. I'm hoping though the '89 still has a similar lightning left in the bottle.

The wine was listed as an Mussbacher Eselshaut Scheurebe Auslese, so I was surprised to find out it was a trocken when I picked it up at the wine store. When I tried to look it up on CellarTracker, there was no listing for it (I ended up creating one).

Thanks in advance.

Oh I answered at the other place. Shall we reenact our exchange here? :)

Lol, I think we're good. Thank you though for your response!

FWIW, a 1989 MC Gewurztraminer I opened about 10 years ago was over the hill then.

Still, good luck!

Thank you. Fingers crossed that the Scheurebe will show better!
