Tasting Notes
FineWine International 100
The most incredible expression of German Riesling we have tasted in over 30 years. This wine has it all: incredible aromatics, a cornucopia of floral and exotic fruit scents, and a galaxy of minerals. On the palate a whisp of sweetness, pinpoint acidity, perfect balance, and a finish that went on forever. In one word: a perfect wine.
Terry Thiese
"..the Kanzemer Altenberg on ure Devonian slate with rusty flectks from weathered inron oxide, making themost primordially concentrated wines, almost meaty, with such depth as to be almost inscrutable when young, as if they have so much to say they can only stutter. I adore wines like these... Yes, the first time I ever "gave" three plusses to a Kabinett, and that's not the story, it doesn't matter what I orn anyone else "gives" a wine. What matters is the things this does does that no other wine does. But getting to it; it smells good! Complex, serene, with the kind of thick lovely melancholy of Saar wnes; expressive quince and balsam; silvery and clear; the palate, if anything, overtakes the aromas..have I ever tated a better Kabinett? What length, mineral, haunting fruit. A sublime masterpiece. Everything there is to cherish about Riesling shown to us here.
Wine & Spirits 92
With its delicate, slate-drenched aromas and quite restraint, this is classic Kabinett, a throwback to the days before global warming and deliverately elevated must-weights. It's crystalline, precise and virtually weightless-those who long for the true Kabinett od will be thrilled with this.
Wine Spectator 93
Delivers a fragrant nose of rose, violet and peony, with black currant and apple flavors, all displayed on a slim, vibrant frame. Intense and long, in an effortless way. Best from 2012 through 2022.
