Piesporter Domherr kabinett Riesling

First time with this bottling and I have deep regrets about buying only four bottles. The acidity is extreme. It swallows the residual sugar, leaving just a hint of sweetness, though the sugar makes the fruit burst on the palate and gives the wine density. Shockingly concentrated and intense with salty, mineral depth and a very long finish. This is closer to a generous Grosses Gewachs than my conception of a Kabinett. Thrilling wine! @Lyle Fass is this typical or an anomaly of the vintage? More importantly, do you have anything like this to sell me? — 11 days ago

Great note! Sadly 21 is an anomaly with huge acid and higher ripeness. Like 2010 I would say. I’ve got some 23’s that come close. Especially Goldtropfchen. Email me!

Oh man what a nose. A minty nose. Fresh decaying leaves, cranberry bog. Red currant. Fresh and energetic. Silky, ripe and perfectly balanced. Juicy and textured. Icing on cake texture. So different than the massive 19’s. Structure. Awesome . — 5 months ago

Really enjoyed this Riesling! Had the typical petroleum aroma along with floral and citrus notes. Sweet flavors especially a nice grapefruit tone. Short crisp finish. Enjoyed it with shrimp. — 5 months ago

Nose: gorgeous. White flower. White cherry flower. So perfumed.

Palate: so silky. Terrific balance. White cherries. Maybe lacks some zing. Very 3 decades ago spatlese.

Fuck the zing. A wine of elegance. Gorgeous.
