Wine Review: This off-dry Kabinett Riesling from the Rheingau region of Germany is a brilliant pale straw color, with an intense bouquet of fresh apricot, vanilla, ash, beeswax, lime, sea breeze, and lemon blossom. It's light and crisp on the palate. Also balanced with plus acidity, ripe fruit, and medium-minus body. There is a pleasant plushness and smoothness to the mouthfeel. I found flavors of yellow apple, tangy lemon, honeydew melon, focused minerality and white peach with notes of saline and mandarin orange. The finish is vibrant and refreshing. You should sip this in the remaining warm days of summer or serve lightly chilled with crunchy deviled pork chops. – Mark

Winemaker Notes: The estate-grown Riesling Kabinett is made to showcase the traditional, lighter style of Riesling. It is sourced from cooler, higher-elevation parcels adjacent to the estate’s classified single-vineyard sites. But it also includes fruit from pre-selections in the top sites, which gives the wine an extra dimension of fruit and mineral intensity. The Riesling Kabinett is light and lovely, with lush exotic fruit aromas and a poised balance of bright acidity and lacy natural sweetness.
