One of the best bottles of Riesling I have had in a long time. Perfectly minty, touch of oxidation but perfectly pure. — 6 years ago

Talk about " closet vintages"...2004s are rarely mentioned in discussions of great German vintages over the past 15-20 years, but people are really missing the boat.
The'04s are classic #Mosel #Rieslings with awesome balance and structure, together with ideal acidity levels for long term aging.
Cooler weather vintages such as #2004, which produce wines of greater restraint and less opulence, are less and less common with the onset of global warming, but they are the ones that true Riesling freaks covet most highly--this #Prälat was totally mind blowing!!! #Loosen #ErdenerPrälat #Auslese — 7 years ago

Pours a surprisingly deep yellow. Nose offers plenty of ripe golden fruit. Palate entry medium sweet and seemingly a bit simple.
Day two paired with German brats braised in caramelized onions/carrots and sauerkraut. The sauerkraut completely changes this wine converting the sweetness to a fresh acid and the flavor profile to an almond tinged white cherry and plum. Very, very interesting food and wine pairing.
Try this with picked/fermented foods as umeshu, kimchi, sauerkraut etc for an interesting change in perception. — 3 months ago

Perfect balance among fruit, acid, and sweetness. This bottle aged well and was only a little past its prime. It had started to change color and darken, but still had a nice golden color. — 6 months ago

A bit sweeter than I expected for a Kabinett, but delicious nevertheless. Green apple and pineapple, with the sweetness leaning towards the pineapple side. Perfect for a hot summer evening. — 7 years ago
