Interestingly, just a couple of weeks ago when I was in San Francisco I had a Puligny- Montrachet and it was somewhat underwhelming, at least considering the price. Happy you enjoyed yours better, Solomon. Huber is certainly one of the German winemakers to watch. Sadly, with international fame also come higher prices, but overall I feel that Germany still offers good value. I have recently had one of his cheaper wines which I will review here at a later stage. With regards to the price of the R unfortunately I cannot help you as it was a present. I have seen that the 2011 vintage appears to be comfortably above €40 though, so this is not an every day wine...
Thank you for your kind words and comment, Solomon!
