Saline and citric even in the nose, Kubler’s 2007 Riesling K offers brisk refreshment, relatively delicacy (belying its 13% alcohol), and true dryness. The lip-smacking finish combines grapefruit and salt, simply but deliciously. Enjoy this over the next 2-3 years. Young Philippe Kubler returned to his family’s estate in 2004 after diverse and impressive international experience and is conscientiously working to pull this domaine into the vanguard of its region. It should be noted that the initial “K” in several Kubler bottlings is merely a way of designating his basic range of bottlings.Importers include Chateau St. Martin, Bellevue, WA; tel.
