Josef Jamek Gelber Muskateller Federspiel

點(diǎn)擊次數(shù)：2118

An especially sappy, bright, juicy expression of its varietal, Jamek’s 2007 Gelber Muskateller Federspiel is loaded with fresh lemon, pennyroyal, pine resin, and apricot, with deep notes of coffee and apricot kernel adding a bitter shading to its brisk finish. This excellent example of its type should prove versatile over the next 2-3 years. After witnessing as a customer first hand last year the virtual absence of any remaining wine under 13% alcohol in the wonderful Jamek restaurant (and that was only in late June), it was a relief to know that 2007 provided a goodly supply. That said, as is often the case at this address – and this year even at Federspiel level – botrytis was a frequent and at times less than felicitous influence.Importer: Terry Theise Estate Selections, imported by Michael Skurnik Wines, Inc., Syosset, NY; tel.

Delightfully expressive orange aromas emanate from the glass of the 2001 Gelber Muskateller Federspiel. This lively aperitif wine (it would also be a good match for spicy Asian dishes) is bright, and loaded with tangerines as well as white flowers. Drink it over the next 3-4 years. Subscribers who are inspired to visit the breathtakingly beautiful Wachau after reading this report should note that there are two Jamek estates in Joching. This one, unquestionably the better of the two, can be differentiated because it has a terraced restaurant (try the weiner schnitzel!) by the Danube.Importer: Terry Theise Estate Selections, imported by Martin Skurnik Wines, Inc., Syosset, NY; tel.

Orange blossoms are found in the aromatics of the 2000 Gelber Muskateller Federspiel. The wine is light-bodied and simple. This is an easygoing wine to quaff outdoors on a warm day. It has appealing fruit, good balance, and a satin-textured core of spiced pears. Drink it over the next 2 years.
