  color: yellow-green
  pleasant fruity nose; on palate peach and apricot
  well balanced sweetness and acid
  a typical excellent Saar Riesling Kabinett, but untypical for van Volxem (mostly known for their excellent dry wines)

  Unlike typical Van Volxem Rieslings that are vinified dry, this Kabinett is a made in the classic Feinherb (off-dry) style typical of Mosel. Made from grapes sourced from the slatey vineyard of Wawerner Ritterpfad. Tasted in the Van Volxem 2015 tasting. 9% alcohol.
  
  Youthful, luminous pale green color. Dull, closed and dusty nose with vague aromas of ripe lemon and some musty hints of damp paper. Medium-sweet, acid-driven with very mineral and fruitless flavors of wet stones and some tangy salinity. Feels mute.
  
  Most likely a slightly corked bottle: musty nose and no fruit to speak of. The bottle cost 14,90€.
