Sunday, June 10, 2018 - Old German Riesling et al. (Chicago, IL): #08-93, 7.5% abv. The last bottle of this was corked, but this one was superb and a return to form. This is easily fleshier and rounder than the brilliant 1973, and there's a little more meat and fat on those bones. The mineral structure here doesn't seem as clearly delineated to me, and there's just a mild bit of diffuseness here that the 1973 didn't have. I'm really nitpicking though -- this truly is pretty close to perfect Kabinett. The freshness here also belies the 26 years that this wine has under its belt.
