Tasting Notes

The 2019 Wiltinger Braune Kupp Auslese is very clear, refined and flinty on the elegant and subtle nose with its rose petal and wood aromas, similar yet even finer than in the Spätlese to be auctioned. On the palate, this is a piquant, fresh and grippy Auslese with racy acidity that cuts the sweetness and pairs with the mineral backbone of this refined and frisky Auslese. The salinity and piquancy are already exciting yet still nervous and youthful—this should be an extremely buoyant Auslese in 20 years. Bottled with 7.5% alcohol. Tasted from AP 7-20 in June 2020.

The 2019er Wiltinger braune Kupp Riesling Auslese offers a stunning nose made of elderflower, citrusy fruits, pear, and delicately subtle scents of dried fruits, all wrapped into some gorgeously engaging scents of bergamot and flowers. The wine is subtly zesty and gorgeously creamy on the palate. The sense of focus and precision are that of the finest bottles of Auslese from the braune Kupp, with this unique blend of aniseed herbs, almond cream, and subtly honeyed elements. The wine finishes in crescendo as a superbly ripe acidity adds yet another layer of complexity in the already stunning aftertaste. This ranks among the finest and certainly most subtle expressions of braune Kupp we have ever tasted! 2034-2057.
