MOSEL FINE WINES
"The independent Review of Mosel Riesling"
By Jean Fisch and David Rayer, Issue no. 52 – June 2020


 Christoph Schaefer dished up a magnificent collection of 2019s. All wines are outstanding if not outright classic. We feel that the sweet spot lies at Auslese level, which simply prove breathtaking (all Auslese and the BA are modern classics in the making). A special mention also goes to the magnificent Domprobst Kabinett, one of the greatest Kabinett we had ever the chance to taste. The only drawback of the collection is the yields, as quantities are small. However, no stone should be left unturned in order to lay one’s hands on some 2019 Willi Schaefer wines: The Schaefer family did (again) a stunning job. Bravo!

MOSEL FINE WINES
„The independent Review of Mosel Riesling“
By Jean Fisch and David Rayer, Issue no. 46 – June 2019

“
 Christoph Schaefer once again underlined its remarkable talent in 2018. He is one of these few growers who managed to transcend the ripe softness of the vintage and produce real classic Mosel wines: filigreed, true to their PrĂ€dikat level, racy and engaging. It therefor comes to no surprise that the portfolio is full of highlights
 Overall, this superstar Estate delivered in the seemingly easy but actually quite challenging 2018 vintage!

"Et forsvar for liflighed – Mosel 2017"

“Der Wein von Andrea und Christoph Schaefer kann etwas, was nur wenige Weine können. Sie bringen erwachsene MĂ€nner zum Weinen und es ist lange her, seit ich TrĂ€nen in den Augen eines Weins wegen bekommen habe.”

VINUM WEINGUIDE DEUTSCHLAND 2019

Ausgezeichnet mit 4 Sternen – Deutsche Spitze
“Eine solch fulminante Kollektion, wie sie dieses Graacher Gut aus dem Jahrgang 2017 vorstellt, fĂ€hrt man in einem Winzerleben nicht oft ein. Die Rieslinge haben ein großen Reifepotential. Sie sind strahlend klar und preschen nach vorn mit jugendlichem UngestĂŒm. Kein Wein ist zu sĂŒĂŸ, alles ist vornehm und prĂ€gnant. Wo sollen wir anfangen, wo sollen wir aufhören? Es gibt fruchtige Kabinette wie aus dem Bilderbuch, wunderbar wĂŒrzig und balanciert. Es gibt einen FĂŒnferpack SpĂ€tlesen, eine schöner als die andere
