Anything but Port, this includes all wines other than fortified wines (which have their own section) even if they call themselves Port. There is a search facility for this part of the forum.

2013 Dr. Loosen Wehlener Sonnenuhr Riesling Kabinett

Post by djewesbury »

Drunk at the Loosen winery with Ernest Loosen and Sales Manager Désirée Schröder on 13th August 2014.

This is a fruity, slightly sweeter style than the Trocken wines; only 8%. Melon and green apple crispness; but not too sharp. The climate means that the Kabinett grapes can hang until November and have full aroma ripeness without developing a full sugar ripeness.

I found this note in my little black book: "not as sweet as thought, but also not as fruity and as acidic as well, don't like it much"
