Coming all from the Scharzhofberger Vineyard (the estate owns a large portion of this site), the 2022 Riesling Scharzhofberger Kabinett is racier, with brilliant crushed citrus, crushed stone, mint, lychee nut, and sappy flower-like nuances. Medium-bodied on the palate, it has a fresh, focused, vibrant mouthfeel, integrated acidity, and a great finish. This is absolutely gorgeous.

This remarkable Saar Kabinett is very crystalline. Stacks of delicate white tree fruit and white flower aromas. Very straight and bright on the light-bodied palate which flashes like the blade of a sabre in the sun. Fantastic precision and subtly salty at the very long and pristine finish. Great aging potential. Drink or hold.

The 2022 Riesling Scharzhofberger Kabinett has a very open but tender nose: ripe greengage is bright and edged with a whisper of chervil. The sweetness on the palate kicks in first, but lightness takes over with serene lemon freshness and fine, almost earthy stone. Ripe greengage, delineated by lemon, soaks up that initial sugar and presents it as juicy, ripe fruit. Finesse runs through this, dancing on light Kabinett feet. The finish is merely off-dry.
