Tasting notes
Reviewed by: Stephan Reinhardt
The 2018 Wiltinger Braune Kupp Riesling Kabinett (AP #4) is clear and very elegant on the nose where ripe and dense stone fruit aromas and fine flint notes are displayed. Lush, mouthfilling and round on the palate, this is a crystalline, fine and elegant Kupp Kabinett that reveals a stimulatingly salty and a finely grippy finish. The 2018 was bottled with 9% alcohol and a quiet sweet bit of unfermented sugar. Tasted in June 2019.
