Going to an event on Sunday and Keller is in their portfolio. Super excited.

I much prefer the “100-cases-of Kabinett” flex to when Rob Rosania bragged about having 100 cases of 96 Salon.

I remember flipping out when I realized that I owned 10 cases of 1990 German riesling.

This was in 1992 or so. I bought a few more. But not enough.

Not here in 20. WS Kab prices from weingut direct source.

'19 £18
'20 £19
'21 £24

Looks like we actually did see a big markup this year. I didn’t notice honestly.

If by steal you mean you are getting robbed. I paid $26.50 in the UK from a Weingut direct source. So somebody in the middle is jacking things up.

This thread has caused me to feel like i need some 2021 Prüm Kabinett in my life…

If i have to limit myself to only a few bottles, which cuvee should i aim at?

Welcome to the THREE tier system.

WS Auction…just kidding :joy:

Prum Graacher Spatlese 2001.
Opened at home. Gorgeous wine, seemed almost Auslese sweet. Served with diver’s scallops, and after with a fine piece of aged Comte.The wine seemed to change with the food; with the simple flavors of the scallop, the fruit and minerality showed beautifully; with the umami in the cheese the wine took a back seat, with the acidity and fruit now coming to the fore. Wonderful showing; could do with a little more aging.
