2007 Mosel Riesling-Kabinett
Seemed to have a higher acidity
Clear, clean, light pale-straw
Nose: Apple sour-patch-kids, fresh green melon, sea-breeze, cheeky, clean
Muscata on the entrance; immediately makes the mouth water; enough sugar to keep you bouncing off the walls, fizzes with sweetness, pumps vitality. Rocketing sugar cut with a high acidity – making for a high-wire act that still pulls off a fine balance between two extremes.
Pleasant and clean finish, lingering tingle on the tongue,
Balanced – could make a crazy spritzer… or even used in cocktail instead of sour-mix… would work well in a punch as well (perhaps two-shots Van Gogh Appel Vodka, one part Riesling, one part soda water, a twist of lime, a dash of bitters and ice.)
