Egon Müller Phenomenal 2018s by the Riesling legend and guardian-protector of Scharzhofberg Egon Müller IV

The slopes of the Scharzhofberg had been known for the quality of its wines for centuries, but it was the Müller family that assured the estate’s place among the great white wines of the world from the 1950s onwards . . — Decanter It has been hailed as the pinnacle of Saar Riesling since 150 years, selling its casks at prices rarely topped by others. Its wines from the Scharzhofberg are revered the world over. Some honor it as “the Romanée-Conti of Riesling”, and this not without reasons. Or is Romanée-Conti the Egon Müller of Pinot Noir? Such is the reputation of this Estate . . — Mosel Fine Wines What Müller does with Scharzhofberg is magical. He renders the site beautifully clear, with a steely finesse and indisputable nobility . . — Crush Wine & Spirits

From the Mosel’s steep, slate vineyards, the winemaking master Egon Müller makes breathtaking Rieslings. The estate owns 8.3 of the 28 hectares of the famous Scharzhofberg vineyard in the Saar region. The Scharzhofberg, or Scharzhof Mountain, is amongst the finest Riesling sites in Germany and is considered Grand Cru. As such, it is allowed to be labeled with its vineyard name, or “Einzellage”, rather than its village name. The Müller holdings include a parcel of ungrafted vines that were planted in the 19th century. These wines deliver at the highest level of quality and are without question some of the world’s greatest wines. The wines are taut and racy, with dazzling fruit; they are intensely mineral and have an endless finish. They are fine, balanced, authentic, and enjoyable young as well as after many years of cellaring. Today, we are thrilled to be able to offer a small parcel of his legendary wines from the much beloved and celebrated 2018 vintage, as well as a few precious bottles from 2017, a dedicated collectors’ choice vintage. These are reference-class German Rieslings bar none and definite cellar treasures that will continue to reward for decades. These magnificent Riesling collectibles are offered ex-cellar Singapore and are in-stock now. All order requests will be processed subject to remaining availability and final written confirmation. No further discount. Full settlement is required to confirm orders.

Scharzhof Riesling QbA 2018 S$ 85 / 750 ml 24 bottles “The 2018er Scharzhof comes from the Estate’s holdings in the Wiltinger Braunfels, Wiltinger Rosenberg and Saarburger Rausch and was fermented down to off-dry levels of residual sugar (28 g/l). Slightly reductive at first, this wine delivers a beautiful nose of pear, yellow peach, spices, aniseed herbs and smoke. The wine proves deliciously fruity and creamy on the palate, and develops some zesty fruits in the fresh and light finish. The after-taste proves superbly spicy and smoky, and quite long.” MFW 90 Also available – Scharzhof Riesling QbA 2017 S$ 80 / 750 ml 18 bottles “The 2017er Scharzhof comes from the Estate’s holdings in the Wiltinger Braunfels, Wiltinger Rosenberg and Saarburger Rausch, and was fermented down to approx. 40 g/l of residual sugar. It offers a beautiful nose of white peach, green apple, flowers, passion fruit, spices and herbs. The wine is stunningly playful and delicately creamy on the palate and leaves a ripe and rich but also delicately zesty feel in the long and ethereal finish. This amazing wine ranks among the finest Scharzhof bottlings ever.” MFW 92 Scharzhofberger Riesling Kabinett 2018 S$ 149 / 750 ml 24 bottles “The 2018 Scharzhofberger Kabinett (AP #2) is brilliant, clear and coolish on the nose, with cold, wet and clayey yet also crunchy slate aromas and bright fruit. Lush and precise, with lingering salinity and mineral expression, this is a complex and structured Scharzhofberger Kabinett with great aging potential.” WA 92+ Scharzhofberger Riesling Spätlese 2018 S$ 272 / 750 ml 24 bottles “The 2018 Scharzhofberger Spätlese offers a very fine and delicate, coolish, precise and flinty bouquet with bright and elegant fruit notes. On the palate, this is a finessed, beautifully round and lush yet filigreed Spätlese with sensual, silky-textured fruit and a long, complex, well-structured and salty-piquant finish. A gorgeous classic from the Scharzhofberg.” WA 94-95 Scharzhofberger Riesling Auslese 2018 S$ 800 / 750 ml 6 bottles “The 2018 Scharzhofberger Auslese (AP #8) is coolish, clear, intense and concentrated on the flinty and even rocky nose with its crunchy notes of broken slate and lemon juice. On the palate, this is a generous, highly elegant and refined, beautifully balanced and salty-crystalline Auslese with concentrated but detailed, elegant fruit, finely grained minerals and a long, complex finish. An impressive, great vin de terroir.” WA 97 Also available – Scharzhofberger Riesling Auslese 2017 S$ 789 / 750 ml 3 bottles “Egon Müller's 2017 Scharzhofberger Auslese (AP #7) offers fascinating crunchy, perfectly ripe, almost oily Riesling and dark slate aromas with some iron and herbal notes. This nose represents perfect ripeness, and that’s what you get on the palate: a lush, crystalline and flinty, mouthwateringly salty, fresh and piquant Riesling of great class, complexity and style. Gosh, this is a beautiful and seductive Scharzhofberger of which I wish I had a fuder in my cellar. Absolutely marvelous and a must-taste (or have).” WA 98
