justerini & brooks tasting note

A Kabinett of effortless balance and wonderful lively red apple and tangerine fruit. Whilst possessing as much sugar as just about any of their previous Kabinetts, the acidity here is such that the finish comes across seemingly dry. A hugely moreish and focussed Kabinett of great freshness.

Sourced in the Fruhlingsplatzchen "VDP. Grosse Lage", the 2013 Monzinger Riesling Kabinett is a beautiful, ripe Riesling with raisin aromas accented by springtime spiciness plus herb and slate nuances. This is an extremely sappy and piquant Ode to the Kabinett predicate. With its low alcohol level at 10% and a judicious measure of residual sugar that doesn't make it too sweet but leaves it dry and mineral enough to let you quaff a bottle on your own in less that 30 minutes, you bet! The wine will age for more than a decade. A must buy.
