The 2004 Munsterer Dautenpflanzer Riesling Kabinett halbtrocken is one of those numerous 2004 Rieslings that behaves like Sauvignon or Scheurebe. Aromas of grapefruit, mint and gooseberry introduce a clear and refined palate featuring a lovely interaction of sweet herbal notes, nut oils and subtle wet slate. The balance of sweetness is perfect to support the fruit and meet the acids more than half way. The finish is very much of soothing herbs and nut oils.
