The Story

The Abtserde is a tiny sub-plot of the Westhofener Brunnenhäuschen, where a vein of iron runs through the limestone.

Written Notes

Was für ein Traum diese zwei Riesling Giganten von Keller. Die atemberaubend schöne, hoch elegante 2010 Abtserde mit ihrer intensiven Mineralität und der laserscharfen Präzision ist in einem einfach bestechenden Trinkstadium mit unerhörter Brillianz, noch immer so jugendlich mit gewaltigem Potential – WT99+(!). Da entsteht eine echte Weinlegende. Das verleitete mich in unserer Blindprobe zu der Aussage, dass ich diese Abtserde gerne mal gegen den ebenfalls legendären 1990 Pettenthal trinken würde, den ich, nicht wissend natürlich, dass genau dieser Wein im anderen Glas war. Auf sehr hohem Niveau konnte diesmal der etwas fülligere, reifer wirkende Pettenthal, das Beste vom Roten Hang mit einem gefühlten Schuss Corton Charlemagne, nicht ganz mit – WT97. Aber das könnte sich innerhalb der nächsten 20+ Jahre bei weiteren Vergleichen dieser Giganten jeweils wieder ändern.
