WTN: 2007 Spreitzer Oestricher Lenchen Riesling Kabinett

by David M. Bueker » Sat Sep 26, 2009 8:20 pm

This lovely kabinett from the Rheingau comes in screwcap (Yay!), so there were no worries about having to return a bottle that had traveled to Canada.

A little rich for kabinett, but deftly balanced with a bit of fruit pith bitterness on the finish offsetting the richness/sweetness in this very young Riesling. As has been the case for the last many vintages, this is a finely made, typical within the confines of its vintage kabinett that shines as a QPR wine as well.

And another pic from the trip:

That sounds really nice - I had thoughts of buying this the last time I was at Table & Vine (particularly after how much I liked the 07 Jesuitengarten Spatlese), then decided to go with the 05 Schmitt-Wagner Kabinett instead.
