Nose of yellow apples, cantaloupe, and lychees. Sparkling minerality, zippy acidity, stone fruits, some lemon peel - did I sense vanilla and a slight touch of gasoline over there too? Long, lingering ending. Very good QPR.

Browned lime, gravel, green apple, steel, and honeyed spices on the nose.
Rather tight and coiled on the palate. Shows some sweetness but not a great deal of fruit delineation. Has similarities with a lemon lime and bitters. Piercing acidity with extended earing. Salt water.
Opinion: give this air! A lengthy double decant perfect. Surprisingly enjoyable and complex Kabinett. Should have put more bottles in the cellar.

Nose: Light in intensity. Primary aromas of floral aromas (blossom), citrus fruit (lemon), green fruit (apple, pear) and stone fruit (apricot).
Palate: The wine has medium sweetness. Acidity is high, alcohol is low, the body is light. Flavour intensity is medium. Primary flavours of green fruit (pears), citrus fruit (lemon), stone fruit (apricot) and candy. Secondary flavours of yeast (yoghurt). The finish is medium in length.
Conclusions: Overall quality is good. The medium sweetness is balanced against sufficient acidity, with the pleasing fruit flavours that integrating well with the secondary yeast flavours.

Nice lemon and pith, some mineral/rock, fairly sweet (modern Kab) but does have lovely zingy acidity that cleans it up in the finish. Nice, even if a tad sugary

First Riesling of this style that i try. Refreshing and light with pear/citrus/apple tones. Enough acids to keep the sweetness interesting. I tried it with a thai curry - worked very well.

8.5% vol Sherbet nose, lemon-centric and stony with some cool blue fruits on the nose. Delicate sweetness, some CO2 on the tongue, nice lift and energy. Good intensity, nice tang, some nerve and lovely length showing some softer (and red) fruits.

It's all citrus blossom and fresh lime. The palate is juicy, invigorating and full of delicious flavours. There's sherbet-like acidity pinging around the gums and the gentle fruit sweetness is perfectly countered. It finishes so fresh, inviting another sip.

Was not particularly impressed. A bit too sweet and not overly complex. Not bad overall but not my style. Some apples, good acidity.

Sweet peachy nose. Sherbet and bath salts.
Soft, creamy palate upfront, but with a cleansing acid that keeps it all in shape and focus towards the finish.
