Alexander Flick has two unusual vintages<br />

in his cellar. This becomes immediately<br />

clear with two wines that reach<br />

high scores: the 2019 Morstein Riesling, brimming<br />

with mineral extract and the full-bodied<br />

yet balanced 2018 Blaufränkisch. We also<br />

found the Silvaner from the Siefersheim site<br />

Goldenes Horn really individual and sophisticated<br />

– a perfect refutation for those who<br />

think this variety cannot exceed mediocrity.<br />

We also love the textured Grauburgunder and<br />

the Chardonnays that only have the slightest<br />

touch of wood influence.<br />

93 2019 Westhofen Morstein<br />

Riesling trocken<br />

White peach, floral and citrus undertones. Impressive on the<br />

palate, rich and pronounced in fruit, but also kept in balance<br />

by cultivated acidity and a layer of fine phenolics. Intense<br />

tactile mineral finish. Pithy single-vineyard wine.<br />

13,5 Vol.-%. screwcap, €€€<br />

91 2019 Siefersheim Goldenes Horn<br />

Silvaner trocken<br />

Herbal spicy notes on the nose and some flint. Still some<br />

yeasty notes. On the palate powerful, juicy, dry phenolics,<br />

still very compact and introverted, very well-proportioned,<br />

really dry with very good potential. 13 Vol.-%. screwcap, €€<br />

90 2019 »Réserve« Grauburgunder trocken<br />

A berryish and nutty varietal style, Brazil nut, very full-bodied<br />

on the palate, striking acidity and powerful phenolics, sophisticated<br />

construction, dense and slightly tactile mineral<br />

underpinnings. Quite dry and still very young, needs two or<br />

three years of bottle age. 12,5 Vol.-%. screwcap, €€<br />

93 2018 Blaufränkisch trocken<br />

Amarena cherry, white pepper and pine on the nose. Supple<br />

opening, immediately vivid juicy fruit, great fullness without<br />

being overblown with fine-grained tannins. Rich yet fresh,<br />

discreetly mineral, long. 13 Vol.-%. screwcap, €<br />

90 2017 Gau-Odernheim Herrgottspfad<br />

Riesling trocken<br />

89 2019 »Jakob« Riesling feinherb<br />

89 2019 »Alexander« Bechtolsheim<br />

Klosterberg Chardonnay trocken<br />

88 2019 Gau-Odernheim Riesling trocken<br />

88 2019 Bechtolsheim Weissburgunder tr.<br />

89 2019 »Flickwerk« Rosé trocken<br />

89 2018 »Von Berg und Tal« trocken<br />

CU/CD/CS/ME/AC<br />

89 2019 Gau-Odernheim Chardonnay tr.<br />

Very fragrant, spice box with hints of nutmeg, flax and<br />

yeast. Round and smooth on the palate, stable acidity, a<br />

touch of sweetness, round and textured on the finish. Fulfils<br />

the expectations of a lightly-oaked Chardonnay.<br />

13 Vol.-%, screwcap, €<br />
