Tuesday, June 29, 2021 - 2020 Kabinetts with Howard Ripley (Zoom!): They are arguably the best estate in the Rheingau, which is a lot flatter than the Mosel. S/SW-facing. Iron-rich loess and marl. 10%.
Richer, headier and more exotic on the nose. Powdery. There’s weight and bitterness but also lots of acidity and citrus – it’s big but in balance. That said, I preferred the Mosel wines from this session.
