Very youthful, with tangerine, chalk and lemon elements on the nose and palate. It's quite easy to drink, as the acids are moderate at most - though adequate to frame the wine properly. There's only a hint of that back end chalkiness I associate with Brückchen. Overall a very pleasant kabinett for uncomplicated drinking. Nothing wrong with that!

Clear, more "water" aromatics than the Meulenhof -- so this area is known for buckets of cheap wine but right on the river you have a single slope with great river vineyard sights. Stub is right on one of these sights.
This has always been one of the most "earthy" riesling that I tasting in the TT set. I wish I would have a chance to taste this one older and see where that earthiness goes. I can imagine that it would be great heavier food. Must try with morels.

No formal notes, but thought this was outsanding. It had good balance, and good acidity. Since it was a Kabinett, I would have preferred it wasn't quite so sweet, but still thought it was a great wine.

Full bodied with citrus fruits and hint of melon tastes. Pretty sturdy wine, stood well to spicy Indian food!
