Anything but Port, this includes all wines other than fortified wines (which have their own section) even if they call themselves Port. There is a search facility for this part of the forum.

2012 Dr Loosen Graacher Himmelreich Riesling Kabinett

Post by djewesbury »

In preparation for the 80-odd Riesling notes to be uploaded this weekend.. this little appetiser from a Sainsbury's purchase this evening.

Nose of cabbage / broccoli. Mouth has fine lively mouthfeel with melon and some richness paired with very light acid. I find this very pleasant though it is on the edge of the sweetness range that I'd drink with dinner. Green apple finish but not very pronounced, not crunchy.

This isn't listed in the Loosen literature so perhaps it's a supermarket-only wine. Good value at £13, just.
