Brundlmayer "Dezemberlese" Muskateller '08 -- Beautiful, Baby Wine

[kirk wallace]

Opened this Thursday night; nose was lovely: delicate white flowers and yellow mellons poured over stoney flintiness. In the mouth it was a bit astringent and ungenerous. Saturday night, however, the nose is even more lovely and in the mouth it sings with delicate fruit and firm mouthwatering acidity and minerality. I have to believe that this will improve for years.

This is bottled under stelvin. I have a case; maybe I'll be disciplined enough to save a few to see how they age.

Crossed over to a fruit day.

this is weird; the original post had the wine (Muskateller Dezemberlese '08) in it. I will try to re-enter it.

Oh, ok. I thought it was like NV Vega Sicilia "Unico" or something, the Ur-Brundlmayer.
