I'm always guarded in my expectations for 2006 Germans, but this one turned out to surpass my hopes. Bronze/orange color, medium-weight, dense, surprisingly good acidity that holds it altogether. some tropicalilty in the fruit. A most pleasant Kabinett. Cellared since origianl release.

Clean cork with white tartaric crystals, Golden bronze orange. Floral, yellow dried flowers, bees wax, herbal note, touch of dried apricot. Palate shows tart Dried apples, sour apricot. I’d say it has slight oxidation but this wasn’t cooked or a leaker? Medium density. Seems tired. Drink em if you got em. Purchase as direct import, stored accordingly and enjoyed 40-55 without food. Drink now… Na zdrowie

Very poor cork, marked seepage. Very deep gold, then oxidative overlay a bit too much. Behind that, still rather sweet for a KAb, citrus and honey. Probably just drinkable but lacking any fine fruit or florality.

Darker than expected, deep gold. Nose of garages and flowers. Plenty of honey, lime, fair acidity, medium length. Sweet for a Kab. Very pleasant though.
