Tasting Notes

Vinous David Schildknecht - 01 Mar 18
A surprisingly ripe nose for Kabinett features Persian melon as well as white peach, with at most the merest hint of site-typical white or red currant. But the polished, luscious, buoyant palate adds bright lime and grapefruit to the mix, generating the sort of tingling brightness and pushback to the wine’s residual sugar that one anticipates from Grünhaus Kabinett at its best. This finishes with vibrant persistence, minty coolness and striking transparency to smoky and crystalline stony nuances.

Top producers include Weingut Egon Müller and Joh. Jos. Prüm in Mosel, Weingut Robert Weil in Rheingau, and Dr. Loosen. Weingut Keller in Rheinhessen is noted for both Riesling and Spätburgunder (Pinot Noir). These producers highlight the excellence and tradition of German winemaking.
