Chalky minerality. Limestone. Real and mouthwatering. Hints of tropical fruit. Real good value.

Almost clear with a touch of effervescence. The nose is filled with wet stones, green apple and ripe apricots. Light to medium bodied with flavors of lime zest, green apples and balanced acidity. Hints of saline and limestone on the medium long finish.

A touch sweeter than I generally enjoy. I like some of the gunpowder and wet stone flavors that come through, some fine petrol as well, but am getting hung up on the pineapple, green apple, and apricot which seem over-ripened and but too much.

Nice and light. Hint of sweetness, not overwhelming. Would get again.

Fun and light, drinks like a vinho verde. Very effervescent, not too sweet. Interesting resiling! Drank it with ramp pesto pasta but would be great solo for patio chilling or with seafood.

On the drier and more floral side. Perfect pairing with the first grilled brats of the year.

Yellow flowers. Sugared peached, red and rioe apples. Kabinett apparently can also mean "sweeter than off-dry"
I believe that a wine with high RS is best enjoyed in the proper setting, as a proper pairing...something I didn't experience.
