  Deep, bright yellow colour. Nose with citrus, noticeable smoke, yellow apples, some dried fruits, petroleum, and some beeswax. Off-dry palate, yellow apples, citrus, high acidity, a long and fresh citrus aftertaste, and some some old wine notes ("firne"). Fine development and fine balance, Spätlese style, foody. 89 p (91 “experience points” since it is a wine carrying a designation that was retired in 1971.)
  As a side note: pre-1971 Cabinet doesn't have the same meaning as Kabinett does from the 1971 vintage.
