Kai Schätzel Riesling Kabinett 2023

Dessert
Rheinhessen, Germany
7.5

Lime blossom, poached pear and a thread of wet slate open this featherlight Kabinett from Schätzel. Acidity is vivid and pulsing, cutting cleanly through the residual sweetness without overwhelming it, a balancing act pulled off with quiet confidence at just 7–8% alcohol. Focused, pure, and delicious right now.
