"THE sweet spot of the 2014 vintage are the Kabinett wines made from clean grapes. These wines have a lightness not seen in two decades and proved a return to the great Kabinett and Spätlese of the 1990s!" http://www.moselfinewines.com/vintage-2014-kabinett-highlights.php

A wonderful single vineyard Kabinett. Lush ripe pear, passion fruit, and a core of zippy acidity. This one could last a long time!

Jan 23rd, 2016Approachable and mellow: clear, almost appley green with the legs of a cheerleader; crisp nose with lime, dragon-fruit, lychee, a hint of lemongrass, and evident acidity but slightly muffled (will open in 12-18 months); very long and off-dry with excellent balance. Don't think it will last forever as the acidity is showing a hint of upper thigh (it's a bit forward), and the fruit is ever so slightly hot. Best now - 2023 (but might close up slightly from 2018-20).
