Stein Palmberg Kabinett Trocken Riesling 2021 (750ml)
At this point Ulli and Phil Lardot are the sole owners of Palmberg - it can be considered a monopole! It is truly their happy place and if Ulli were playing to bigger audiences perhaps be more widely known. It is without a doubt one of the best vineyards in the entirety of the Mosel - solid cliff face of blue and grey slate, all terraced micro parcels of 80-100 year old vines. The 2021 is bracingly dry with extraordinary levels of extracts and zippy.
Stein Description
The Palmberg is Stein’s “Grand Cru” and a vineyard to measure against any other vineyard in the Mosel, period. It is an awesome site, an ancient wall of vines filled with ungrafted plantings that are 90+ years old. These cooler vineyards, especially when they have old vines, are a massive asset. This wine is ruthless, cut, mineral, fresh and phenolic. It is quite simply one of my favorite wines of this vintage and it will age, easily, for 10-20+ years.
