Ürziger Würzgarten Kabinett Mosel Riesling

Vintage 2016 | Honey. Minerals. A nice tension between sweet and acids. Discussion among tasters, should a kabinett age or do we want to enjoy it young. I tend to the opinion of @Berry Marinussen: put it the first ten years away 😉

We had this on 4/17-18/19. Light straw color. Peachy, sweet bouquet. Lemon citrus sweetness on the palate. Has a certain taste that has to be acquired. As we are going to Germany, we had to try a Reisling.

This is the Gold Capsule Kabinet. . Slightly off dry. Crystalline and precise. Petrol on the nose, lemon/lime and a little honey on the palate. Goes down way too easy.

Notas de limón verde y amarillo, gis, conchas de mar, miel y algo de petrolatos. Buena acidez.

Wonderful acid, lemon, citrus; but wow, super surprising strong shellfish notes… mussels. Very atypical Mosel profile. I don’t hate it, but some people will.

A kiss of honey sweetness was just about right to counter balance the sharp acidity. Nice mix of stone and citrus fruits with pronounced minerality. No trace of petrol, which I like very much. The medium body was quite elegant. Juicy and lightly spiced finish.

Ürziger wurzgarten.

Juicy, limey, delicious acidity with hardly the presence of RS despite the 10.5 Alc. Great mineral qualities as well. Wonderful surprise. Really wish I had more of this!!! KL maybe?
