Erdener Treppchen Kabinett Mosel Riesling 2023

The nose was a bit closed at first but is now opening up with chalk and lovely lemon curd and lemon zest notes as the wine slowly warms up in the glass. There is also a light floral touch too along with some fresh white grape.
This is very inviting. The palate is superb with a superlative acid backbone, some delicious lemon curd and zesty notes all along, some chalky mouthfeel that changes in the rear with a bit of grip, before a long, fresh and tangy finish with lemon curd and that zesty twist that makes you reach for the bottle for a second glass right after the first one. This is unmistakably a German Riesling Kabinett, and a great example at that!
Edit : now that the wine has warmed up in the glass, notes of fresh white peach and roasted pineapple with honey are popping up in the nose. Delicious!

Citrus, white flowers, lemon zest and a tiny petroly note on the nose. Sharp acid drive and lemony notes all around the palate. It's dry, yes, but there is almost a sweet note in mid palate. The finish is fresh, tangy and zesty and keeps you salivating. It's not great but it does the trick quite well. — 2 years ago

Marzipan and key lime notes emerge from the glass. Color is straw gold. Viscous and somewhat sweet with a slight effervescence. Almond paste, lime, green apple and rhubarb on the palate. Finish is fairly long. Perfect with sushi tonight. — 4 years ago

Bouquet is kind of non existent. Slight pear and limestone quality.

Solid effervescence, acidity, sweetness, fruit, and mouthfeel.

Most importantly though, missing the bone dry fresh blades of grass quality that I usually love in Riesling.

This is an expression for the masses to check a box, not discover and gush.

Astounding how fresh a wine this sweet can be. And there’s a magic prickle to it that no matter the sugared feel is mitigated through green aromatics and guavas and zing-tastic acidity. — 3 years ago
