Double decant with a shake to release some sulphur. Refreshing nose with apples, citrus and peach. Energic palate with citrus and a tropical centrum. Fairly long. This is drinking superb at the moment!

Light color. A bit muted nose, maybe minerals and hints of petroleum. Not typically riesling nose, as there is something undefining about it. Palate is a bit mineral, sweet, lemon, apples, with clear acid and some greenness. Perhaps not very concentrated but balanced and nice. Tasted against Molitor Zeltinger Kabinett 2013, which was a bit sweeter on the palate and had a more flowery nose.

Light color. A bit muted nose but some pear, minerals, hints of petroleum. Enjoyable, but not perfectly balanced out. Seems a bit edgy and angular perhaps.Palate is a bit mineral, sweet, lemon, pear, apples, Very good, Not very concentrated but balanced and nice. A very lean and good wine. Clear acid and a bit greenness. Not as sweet as the Molitor Zeltinger Kabinett 2013 tasted against it.

This has that character I find so often in riesling from the Saar - extremely elegant, but bursting with pickled citrus, green apples and steely minerality. Silky smooth and slightly oily, but oh so light. Quality of fruit is simply sublime, and it finishes with a lovely bitter zest-like note. Definitely what I'd call a elegant Kabinett. Love it.

Not much has changed since 2014. Full of pickled citrus fruit and minerality, remains in pretty much perfect balance to my taste.

Lovely Riesling aromas that remind of a Mosel, with slate and some petroleum. Semi dry and skinny, with high acidity and good concentration.

Delicious - maybe slightly mean score - nothing special but good Kab

Delicate and classy aromas of yellow fruit, and slate minerals. Savoury and velvety in the mouth. Just lovely stuff.

More Riesling character and fruit on the nose (compared to Fass 16). Great balance, light, fresh, good length. Very good. 90-92
