    August 18, 2013 - Not a Riesling expert by any stretch, but interesting to see this show what I believe is some evolution under screw cap. Petrol on the nose with graphite and flinty notes. Definitely a bigger Kabinett with some melon and lemon notes. Big hit of RS, but acidity is enough to keep it from cloying.

    August 28, 2009 - Grapefruit, nectarine, steel and slate, with a hint of anise. Simple but quite tasty and refreshing.

    July 1, 2009 - Excellant Kabinett, in some years this might be mistaken as a Spatlese. I will be looking for more.

    May 17, 2009 - Opened up after about an hour; showing well with some secondary notes of petrol and smoke to go along with broad-shouldered lemony white fruit and minerals. Certainly not complex, but delicious nonetheless.

Rockss and Fruit

    (Gunderloch Jean Baptiste Kabinett) Nice nose of those powdered seastones, citrus and some spice. Smells dry but definetly has some nice rich fruit and a good amount of RS on the palate. Stays in balance and has exceptional crunchy minerality. Excellent if on the bigger side of Kabinett.
