"Terrific tension between juicy white tree fruit and grapefruit aromas and the smoky-stony side of the wine. So bright and energetic on the extremely focused, light-bodied palate. Laser-beam straight in the finish. Drink or hold. Screw cap."

"The 2023 Riesling Niederhäuser Klamm Kabinett, from porphyry facing southeast, has a slightly darker aspect on the nose. Wet stone shines through the lemon, slowly gaining more ground. The palate has touches of peach and is a bit sweeter, but all is framed with tender lemon. The finish is totally zesty. Whoa. (Medium)"

"The 2023 Niederhäuser Klamm Riesling Kabinett is pure and savory on the nose that reveals ripe yet fresh and mineral-scented fruit. Round, lush and savory on the palate, this is a crystalline and concentrated, dense and characterful Kabinett whose sweetness is better integrated than in the Leistenberg. This Klamm Kabinett is intense and juicy yet also elegant and refined, rather light and stimulating. 9% stated alcohol. Screw cap. Tasted in October 2024."

"Striking note of fresh pomegranate and star fruit. Juicy and zesty with a blood orange freshness that is delightful to admire. Super-fresh finish with an energy that you wish could be put into batteries. The unfermented grape sweetness is already beautifully integrated. From organically grown grapes with Fair'n Green certification. Drink or hold. Screw cap."

"The 2022 Riesling Niederhäuser Klamm Kabinett is on volcanic soils of porphyry. This is a vineyard that used to belong to an extended family. It was repurchased and is now vinified as a single site. The nose is of serene citrus. The palate is rich like lemon oil, concentrated, flowing and mouth-watering. Lemon fills the mouth, serene, yet with an inherent playfulness. All the fruit plays first fiddle for now, but the stone underneath just waits its turn. The 2022 is glorious, balanced and bright. (Medium)"
