Grafen Neipperg 2007 Neipperger Schlossberg Spätlese Muskateller (Württemberg)
- Online Exclusive
- $34
Muscat comes through loud and clear, offering up aromas redolent of oranges, citrus blossom and spice. It’s light in body and off-dry, with refreshing fruit flavors of oranges and nectarines. This would make a fine summertime picnic wine.

Grafen Neipperg 2006 Neipperger Schlossberg Auslese Traminer (Württemberg)
- Online Exclusive
- $48
Shows good varietal character in a somewhat sweet format. It starts off slightly musky and gingery on the nose, then adds lychee fruit flavors. For its sweetness, it’s not particularly richly textured or weighty, making it a possibility as an apéritif.

Grafen Neipperg 2006 Neipperger Schlossberg Spätburgunder (Württemberg)
- Online Exclusive
- $55
This Pinot Noir from southern Germany balances attractively between berry fruit and more savory notes of cured meat, leather and wet stone. It’s medium bodied, with gentle, slightly dusty tannins and a mouthwatering finish. Drink it over the next 2–3 years.

Grafen Neipperg 2007 Neipperger Schlossberg Spätburgunder (Württemberg)
- Online Exclusive
- $55
This Pinot Noir stands out in a flight of German reds for its slightly fleshy, concentrated fruit quality. Bristling with acidity and a delicate layer of tannins, it’s delicately structured but elegantly fruity, with hints of dried cherry and plum accented by rose and potpourri notes.

Grafen Neipperg 2006 Schwaigerner Ruthe Grosses Gewächs Trocken Riesling (Württemberg)
- $40
Mineral and slaty, this Riesling isn’t particularly aromatic, but it does offer weight and breadth on the palate alongside flavors of pear and dried spices. Falls off a bit on the finish.

Grafen Neipperg 2009 Trocken Spätburgunder (Württemberg)
- Online Exclusive
- $28
Notes of sweet baking spices and ripe, red cherries and plums seem luxurious against the subtly herbaceous green-leaf and dusty mineral notes. The finish is fairly short, but it ends sweetly with a kiss of ripe red fruit.
