TN: 2009 Dr. Loosen Erdener Treppchen Riesling Kabinett

Mosel region, Germany. Screwcap or Stelvin cap. 7.5% alcohol by volume. Imported by The Country Vintner, Ashland, VA. A.P. 2 576 162 27 10. Back label notes the steepness of the vineyard and iron-rich red slate soil.

Slight greenish tint to the pale gold color. Tiny bubbles on the surface when first poured (petillant or frizzante.) Some petrol. Stone fruit with pear in the lead but hints of peach also. Quite slurpable or gulpable. I had to resist drinking most of the bottle in one evening.

Despite rumours here, I am still buying Kabinett!
