A wine served on the pressed tablecloths of Michelin-starred restaurants, Nobel Peace Prize dinners, Asian street-food stalls, festivals (from culinary to heavy metal) and dinner tables everywhere. Few wines in this style and price range have the ability to paint broader smiles than this.
Kabinett is the first of the designations in German wine to indicate sweetness and this just ticks over the dial. Its neon-bright acidity keeps all firmly in check, but that succulent generosity from the faint sprinkling of sugar is incredulously good.
