Kupljen Renski Rizling Selection Mon Royal 2009, Jeruzalem-Svetinje and a Couple of Classics 2009 from Emrich-Schönleber

Today I had my first Riesling from Slovenia. Again from Kupljen in Jeruzalem. Alongside this personal novelty I had a couple of Emrich-Schönleber Rieslings 2009 from Nahe region in Germany. Let’s see how the Renski Rizling will put up a good show against the classics.

La Slovénie .......huit points: Kupljen Modri Burgundec 2007 Selection, Jeruzalem-Svetinje

My first Pinot from Slovenia! Grown on the fair slopes of the Jeruzalem Hill in Stajerska and aged for 16 months in 600 l barrels, this Pinot impressed me with its simplicity and buoyancy.
