David M. Bueker wrote:The Adam was very delicious, though I was hoping for some element of "Mosel-ness" rather than just a generic (albeit excellent) "Riesling-ness." Still, that is one I would pay for and drink..
Salil Benegal wrote:It's from the Dhron Hofberger, although the label just reads "Hofberg" - it's basically imitating the Grosses Gewachs bottlings/labels. And in terms of quality it is up there with the top GGs I have tasted.
Rahsaan wrote:Sounds interesting. The conventional wisdom is that the Mosel is not the place for the best German drier-style wines but one does hear lots of good things about Adam and it sounds like he has figured out how to make it work. But this is not the bottling that is known as Dhroner Hofberg "GG"?

I'm planning to open a 2004 Westerly next week - I'm not a big fan of California Syrahs, but I keep trying.
David M. Bueker wrote:And Salil - that Arcadian you were horrified by (and thus I did not open): it's 13.8% alcohol Syrah, and I am drinking it right now. Lovely balance, some white pepper & lots of rich (but not pruney) fruit.
