Smokey, a bit of tangerine, a bit of cassis and other herbal components on the nose. At first I thought Grünhaus but it isn´t made in the super intense Ruwer style, rounder edges. Still very vital on the palate with a lively acidity, playful, very, very fresh and Vibrant. What a great, wonderfully aged Kabinett!

Asperg Wine Syndrome Tasting Group: October 2018 edition: Popped and pour. Perfect cork and fill level. Clear, medium golden-amber color. Clean, medium+ intense, developing nose that first reminded me a bit of Grünhaus: Smokiness, herbs, tangerine, cassis, vanilla, mineral notes. Complex and multi-layered. One of my favorite scents! Off-dry, medium (+), perfectly integrated acidity. Only 8% abv. Medium body, which made it hard to tell, if this is a richer Kabinett, a Spätlese or even a lighter style Auslese. On the palate beautiful favors of tangerine, apricot, ripe yellow stone fruit, vanilla, herbs and a beautiful mineral core. Soft and delicate, but also with beautiful tension and grip, very delicious and with a super elegant, long and lingering finish. Beautiful Kabinett. This bottle could be kept for at least 5+ years. 93
