2012 Vollenweider Wolfer Goldgrube Riesling Kabinett - Germany, Mosel Saar Ruwer (11/7/2014)
Served alongside a number of Indian dishes, this was a gorgeous food match. The moderate sweetness was a good partner to the mildly spiced food, and the apple and citrus flavors played off the various spice blends as well. For some reason the wine exploded when paired with any dish that featured cardamom. When that happened the wine carried the flavor and ran with it, extending the food and creating a truly memorable wine/food matching experience.
Overall this is a very fine, modern Kabinett that drinks very well now, and has the depth and balance to last for a long time.
