A successful top Rieslings from this house are spectacular masterpieces. From the pig's stomach Kallstadter brings Bernd Philippi his best wines. In some years, the dry wines are of an almost baroque abundance, but retain a enchanting elegance and liveliness. Results are surprisingly durable wines with strength and body. But over time they come into full play and probably are among the best ever produced dry Rieslings. Especially when the swan song is already faded in most wines, begin Philippis masterpieces revive, as we have seen for ten years in comparative samples. And what has this grandiose Spätlese only a mistaken minerality (flint), and an enormous body and a grandiose inner density and viscosity are in fantastic balance with the delicate fruit (which never is at Bernd's wines in the foreground), the elegance, finesse and freshness of the vintage, keep quite a few experts for the most in the first decade of the millennium.
