90 Points

Saturday, July 25, 2015 - At home over cards with Allen and Shin. This was A really rich Kabinett, and still quite primary to boot. It had some quality, but this really does not seemed to have developed much from the last bottle 4 years ago. Grapey sugar aromas on the nose were just starting to give way to green apple, peach and mineral shades. On the palate, sweet, Spatlese-like flavours of green apples were coated with more honeyed stone fruit and another layer of that primary, grapey sweetness. This was all balanced by a nice bit of mouthwatering acidity and there was a real substance to the way the wine filled the mouth into the back palate, but it just somehow felt a bit tight-fisted and brutish. Overall, decently good, but the next bottle will only be open in 3-4 years time.
