Tasting notes
This is an exceptional Kabinett that combines the floral delicacy and racy filigree that are the category’s raison d’etre with the clarity of a mountain stream and a super clean finish that screams “drink me!“ Drink or hold.

Vollenweider's 2019 Wolfer Goldgrube Riesling Kabinett is a spectacular wine that balances 56 grams of residual sugar with a total acidity of 10 grams! It is sourced in the west-facing Jon plot and from ungrafted vines still trained on single poles. This is a bright, light, pure, fresh, refined and crystalline Kabinett with a piquant, highly stimulating, endlessly salty finish. A fantastic wine from weathered gray slate soils. The sweetness is perfectly hidden not only due to the spectacular acidity but also the mineral depth and piquancy, which gives this legendary lightness, elegance and delicious fruit. A wine you should not miss! Tasted from AP 01 20 in May 2020.
AP number 01 20. TA 10 g/l, RS 56 g/l. Low-key, lemon-sherbet nose. Very marked acidity but then lovely sleek fruit. Dry, savoury finish but on a well-judged tightrope. Light sandy texture. Extremely bracing! (JR)
