Tasting notes
The 2016 Riesling Wehlener Klosterberg Kabinett (White Capsule) is clear, pure, fresh and mineral on the nose where citric notes are displayed. Bottled with just 10% alcohol, this is a dry yet lush and textured Kabinett with fine mineral and phenolic structure and excellent aging potential. Keep it for 4 to 5 years and then enjoy over the next 20+ years. Tasted March 2018.

90+ points. Strongly reductive at first, it is only after extensive airing that this wine reveals cool aromatics of herbs and mint as well as some greengage and smoke. The very dynamic wine proves nicely refreshing with grip and presence on the palate. The finish is light and airy, with great upside potential at maturity.
