2007 was a very good kabinett vintage and the Wehlener vineyard normally a source of elegant, lighter Mosels. I was quite disappointed as this wine, while mildly young, is not balanced. The fusel oil element overwhelms, with insufficient acid backbone and a lack of complex floral notes

I bought this wine in 2008. Tonight was my last bottle. It was still drinking well. I drank it with Roast Goose. It went fine with it -- the acidity provided the body to handle the meatiness of the goose. I lovely wine.

This wine continues to drink well. The flavor is deeper and fuller than suggested by my notes from December, 2009. The wine is sweet, fruity and a reasonable acid base. It went very well with sushi

(F. Weins Prum Wehlener Sonnenuhr Kabinett) Bert Selbach made some incredible '07's and many will fill my cellar. And they are still at reasonable prices. Nose of Christmas spices, stones, a creamy attribute, and a piercing note of key lime that brings it al together. Outrageously complex. Palate is ripe with lovely finesse and raciness due to excellent crisp acids. This is a rich Kabinett no doubt about it. Excellent WS characacter with a creamy mid-palate and utmost finesse.

Textbook stuff. OK, not the greatest version of its type, but, if I had to explain what a Mosel Kabinett is like, this would be a good example.

This stuff is seriously good. A little richer than I remember, but still Kabinett.
