Bastgen 2007 Bernkastel-Cueser Weisenstein Spätlese Trocken Riesling (Mosel-Saar-Ruwer)
- Editors' Choice
- $25
While many dry wines from the Mosel are overly tart, this offering is a very pleasant exception. It is stony, minerally and a bit austere, offering up the barest hints of peach kernel and spice, but it’s also characterful. It finishes with good length, showing firmness alongside dried-spice notes.

Bastgen 2007 Kestener Paulinshofberg Auf den Felsen Spätlese Riesling (Mosel-Saar-Ruwer)
- Editors' Choice
- $23
A sweet, plump, succulent spätlese, Bastgen’s 2007 Auf den Felsen (on the rocks, referring to the section of the vineyard) features scents of aloe and lime, followed by apple and citrus flavors surrounding a mineral core. Mouthwatering on the finish.

Bastgen 2007 Brauneberger Juffer-Sonnenuhr Kabinett Riesling (Mosel-Saar-Ruwer)
- $19
This rather lightweight kabinett is entirely in character for its classification. Even if many 2007 kabinetts are bigger and richer, Bastgen’s offers finely detailed flavors of honey, melon, peppery spice and crushed stones. Great apéritif wine.

- Online Exclusive
- $17
Light to the point of lacking substance, with earthy, citrusy flavors that finish tart and short.
