Fred #Prinz' attractive #Rheingau #Rieslings inevitably say "pear extract" to me. They also have a mineral floral aspect that gives them a racy complexity and they are consistently well-structured, allowing them to age for decades. This #2007 was an unmitigated triumph for him and one that after nearly a decade has blossomed into a gorgeous #Riesling! #spätlese — 9 years ago

An absolute beauty for those preferring the slightly sweeter side of #Kabinett #Rieslings. — 10 years ago

Fred #Prinz can flat out do it all...from crystalline, mineral-driven dry wines to such sensational fruity examples as this beautifully-evolved 2008--I could drink this all day long! #Riesling — 10 years ago

Kick-Ass Kabinett! #2004 was an epic year for #Riesling in #Germany and this bottle has only moved a matter of miles from its original birthplace. Freshness is the hallmark of this incredibly clean, fleshy #Rheingau. Lovely balance that will certainly take it out another decade or more! #prinz #Kabinett #rieslingrocks — 9 years ago

Fred #Prinz is one of those multi-talented winemakers that can do it all: dry, off dry, sweet, sticky and reds.
This remarkable late harvest #Riesling, which is borderline Auslese, has an almost creamy consistency with a lengthy honeyed finish that is not at all cloying--a magical wine! #2007 #Jungfer #spätlese #goldkapsel — 9 years ago

Once I learned what 'reductive' meant, this turned out to be a fantastic #riesling! That initial smell can be off-putting, but give it some swirl and some time and it opens beautifully. I must be on a roll because these last couple seem to be highly #glouglou, I can't make them last more than a couple days! Up next: the rest of #Prinz #RoterRiesling! I'm so excited!! #FiftyTwoRieslingsOneYear #WeekSeven2015 — 10 years ago

Just an average Wednesday afternoon... The label is a little worse for wear, but this wine is a beauty! 11 years old with astounding acidity and fresh fruit that lasts. #2004 #Prinz #HallgartenJungfer #Riesling #Kabinett #Rheingau — 9 years ago

Basically, the mother of today's #Riesling...a very old clone that produces a denser more full-bodied wine with a hint of pigment--this 2011 is delicious to drink now! #Prinz — 10 years ago

This wine positively sings! It jumps out of the glass with such opulent fruit and vibrancy--utterly delicious--what the Germans call, "TRINKFLUSS"! #Riesling #Prinz #Jungfer — 10 years ago
