“The 2021 Zeltinger Schlossberg Kabinett is bright and pure on the elegant and refined nose that shows bright slate and fruit as well as herbal aromas. Lush and piquant as well as saline on the palate, this is a playful and juicy, classic Kabinett with a stimulating finish. 8.5% stated alcohol. Screw cap. Tasted in July 2022.” — Stephan Reinhardt, Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate
“A juicy and very refreshing Mosel Riesling Kabinett. Brimming with summer flowers, sliced pear and white peach. Wonderful balance that makes this sleek beauty delicious right now. Very clean finish. Drink now. Screw cap.” — Stuart Pigott, JamesSuckling.com
I haven’t tried every bottle in this selection yet, however, so far they are all very tasty. I’m a Chardonnay lover, always on the look out for a dryish not sweet wine and these are just right for me. An excellent mixed case and we’ll priced.
This was a very nice surprise in Wine Direct’s very welcome Plenty Under $20 category. Beautifully fruity, rich and smooth. Often the Plenty Under $20 range is a little light for the depth I like but I will definitely be reordering this one.
A great summer wine… elegant and a fine balance of lighter fruit and delicate acidity with a nice dry finish. Very drinkable with or without food. A nice change from our usual unoaked French Chardonnay
