Yellow apples, pineapple, star fruit exotic fruit with touch of mineral. Monolithic flavor but very well balanced and tasty with still noticeable sweetness on the attack but a solid dry finish with perffect acidity to counteract the rather full mouth feel. Very easy to quaff and with lots of life left. A very solid Kabinett.

Nose: Wet stone, gasoline, typical Riesling. Mouth: Tropical fruits like passion fruit and pineapple. Nice minerality. A touch of residual sugar. 9% alc. Perfect with Asian dishes.

Honeyed appley-citrus nose with strong minerality. Palate similar to nose with moderate citrus acidity on finish. A winner and one to age. Excellent with smoked ham, pork sausage, and grilled zuccini. Drank with Leslie, Uwe, and Kelly along with another '05, a Cluesserath from the Apotheke vineyard in Trittenheim. The Cluesserath was more elegant but the Grans-Fassian was more assertive.

Typical , good mosel riesling punching where a kabinett should. Delightful sweet sour notes of pineapples, lychee, sour apples and sour plum powder.

N: light touch of mineral, simple fruit
M: lemony acidity picks up in finish
Clean and simple. A bit too simple maybe...
