Lovely Moseley mineral nose. Gern apple on the palate. Nice density. Almost creamy. Love this wine.

As this opens it has this rocky intensity. Minerals bound with fruit. Sweet rocks on the finish. So good. — 13 days ago

Masterful clarity juxtaposed against textural playfulness. Punches so far above it’s price point. — 2 months ago

Minerality over fruit. Crunchy green apple fruit with hints of lime zest. Citric acid for days with unmistakable underripe green apple fruit. Dry to finish with acidity driving lingering finish. Paired well with slightly sweet Asian food. — 5 months ago

Pink grapefruit and ripe peach are tinged with fresh ginger and smoky black tea on the nose and the silken-textured, lees-inflected yet generously juicy palate. The luscious finish harbors more than enough bite and smoky pungency to invigorate. While there seems to be nothing remotely approaching consensus on why crumbly iron-rich red slate of the sort involved here (in both the Nonnenberg and parts of the Marienburg) tends to imprint Riesling with distinctively luscious citricity, deep peachiness and smoky accents, the effect is undeniable and unmistakable.

Punches wayyyy over it’s weight. Layers of light spring flowers, zingy green apple acidity, stony wet river rock texture. Am I a Riesling person now?! — 4 months ago

Pale straw yellow, exotic fruit. Coating in the mouth with nicely integrated sugar levels. Not overly acidic, well balanced. 97RP

Brief notes from the VDP auctions, so take this with a grain of salt. Classic kabi and one of my favourites this auction. Juicy yellow stone fruits, herbs, racy acidity, impressive length. Very elegant.

NB: Kabi's from this set of auctions have been somewhat disappointing (looking at you Egon), but surprisingly, the Bad Krueznach auction delivered on some really classic and delicious kabi's, most of which went for reasonable prices. This kabi, the Goldloch from Joh. Bapt. Schafer (best value buy imo), the Kirchspiel from Groebe, Kai Schatzel's Pettenthal, and of course, the Keller Schubertslay. From the Mosel, I only really enjoyed the kabi's from Fritz Haag, Clemens Busch, and Grunhaus, but I felt they were playing on a lower level. Would be good to taste all these together again to compare. — 4 months ago
