Very nice Lemberger, in its prime. Rich yet lean, very dry with pronounced acidity. A hint of Italian influence, with its tannins and a slightly bitter note on the finish. — 6 years ago

Wow! Drinking like a wine less than half it's age. Such a shame that this style of wine has one out of favour. The perfect off-dry wine. Sublime nose of almost buttery (though not in an oaky sense) unripe peaches, spring buds, and a hint honeysuckle. Cutting acidity and great length! — 8 years ago

Phenomenal Auslese from this out-of-the-way Staatsweingut Trier vineyard. Pale green-gold sheen of a very young wine. Beautifully pungent yet delicately nuanced nose of raw unripe grape juice and pips, peach kernel, Chinese gooseberries, dragonfruit, and dandelions; stunning concentration of flavours on the palate with crushing layers of musky fruit and incredible knife-sharp acidity. This excellent example of the '83 vintage just goes to show how nowhere in the world even comes close to the M-S-R! — 10 years ago

Second time I had this Alte Reben Kabinett. Tasting sample at the Auction in Trier in which this Kabinett was sold at a price of 160 Euro netto per bottle. A new world record for this Prädikat. Although this is A LOT of money, this wine defined how a good Kabinett should look like. Light without beeing thin, lots of beautiful aromas on the nose, nearly weightless. Incredible tension, perfect, ripe acidity. Just wow. A real Champion. — 10 years ago

Strong pear fruit, with moderate minerality and acidity. It seemed to me to be a little sweeter than some kabinett wines, and to have a hint of the spice that Riesling sometimes has. — 10 years ago

#1934 was one of the three best vintages of that decade in #Germany, along with 1937 & 1938.
The #Staatsweingut #Rheingaus produced in this era were excellent; especially those from the steep, #slate soil sites of the majestic Rüdesheimer Berg.
This is a perfectly balanced wine when it comes to sweetness versus acidity and in no way a big, fat, syrupy overstated example of late-picked #Riesling, but rather restrained by comparison...a wine one can easily drink more than one glass of--GRANDIOS!!! #klostereberbach #tba — 11 years ago

Diesel-forward, smoky botrytis, exotic fruit and floral, quite sweet but with tingling acid. Plenty of years left in it. — 7 years ago

Pre-wine at the Auction in Trier. Creamy, good concentration, flows down the palate like silk. Acidity is here on the low end regarding the vintage. Medium finish. — 10 years ago
