German Wines

 
This century has seen an extraordinary run of top-class German vintages: the powerful 2001s, the gorgeously elegant 2002's, the very ripe 2003s (now sliming down to rival the 1959s), the classic 2004s, the legendary 2005s, the wonderfully seductive botrytised 2006's and the 2007's with beautiful blance and finesse.
 
2008 is a vintage that recalls the great pure vintages of past times.  The wines have less weight than the last three vintages, and the best, which have had the benefit of very long hangtime, are beautifully focussed and clean with apple, citrus and peach flavours and a pronounced ripe minerality: they unmistakably reflect the place where the grapes were grown. These are very refreshing, almost ethereal wines
