Mosel: vintages 2001, 2002 and 2003, somewhat long
Anders,
Thanks for such a detailed look at the last 3 vintages. Any special wines that
jumped out at you in the 2002s? Especially interested, obviously, in wines with
good distribution in US. I know that's not info that you would have collected.
But I'd be especially interested in any wines to look out for from:
Christoffel
Selbach-Oster
Kerpen
JJ Prum
Dr. H. Thanisch (Erben)
Dr. Fischer
Meulenhof
St. Urbans-Hof
Reichsgraff von Kesselstatt
Mönchhof
A lot of these wines have relatively small production, and as interest in US
hasd grown (one reason for the price increases you note, for instance), lots
become unattainable right after release, especially if they garner the dreaded
points. I've got enough faith in your Mosel notes to do prearrival on
Christoffel or Prum, wines that sell out quickly, if you recommended one.
