Tasting Notes:
A kabinett for the ages rich with expressive, Rubenesque peach and lemon fruit and white floral elegance. Youthful, lilting acidity mingles gaily with natural sweetness around a slate-smoke campfire. Enjoy the surprising whisper of dill before giving in to the long, fine and stony finish.
Serving Suggestions:
With 2015’s optimal conditions for a true Kabinett year, we recommend putting this gem into the cellar for a few years. When the time comes to open it up, pair it with your choice of spicy Asian fare such as spicy chicken satay or grilled crab.
