March 11, 2015 - This wine presented more color than the kabinett. It had more twinges of green as opposed to the almost clear kabinett. There was a touch of petrol on the nose. It shared lots of characteristics with the kabinett, although they were a bit punchier. I picked up some green apple, lime, minerality, and some floral notes. A nice long finish.
The wine medium-sweet. Not as large of a step-up from the kabinett as I expected. I thought it could use a little bit more acid, but that was only a minor issue. Also, although it carried the same abv as the kabinett, it seemed more pronounced.
Overall, it was a nice wine, but I think that the way they were drinking last night, I actually preferred the kabinett, which was in a really nice place.1,401 views
