Nose is subdued at first, but then opens to a range of lemon, lime, white flowers, rock dust. Palate a wonderful vibrant lemon and lime; lots of slate minerality; the acid is quite unique. Very present, and almost has a tannin like quality. I think once the acid integrates over the years it will be something even more special. A great value. — 2 months ago
First time since summer and what a great wine and value. Aromas of cranberry, cranberry bog, spice, mineral and mid to early season cherry. Lovely aromatic precision. Some tree bark and citrus rind as well. Gorgeous palate full of mid season cherry fruit that has terrific sweetness and thrust. So pure, such tiny berry fruit intensity and wonderful sap and finesse. 2020 was such a turning point for Steinmet’s Pinot Noirs. So fresh and energetic and grippy but ripe tannins. Wonderful and let’s see what air does. Ah, great finesse and increasing suppleness and sweetness with air. Just melts in the mouth. — 3 months ago
Nose: just an overwhelming feeling of freshness. Yellow flowers. Much more dense as this opens. Penetrating.
Palate: sweet minerals. Utterly delicious. Stone fruits. Pure mountain stream. More dense as it opens. Succulent. Juicy. Amazing.
There is a perfection about this. Terrific balance.

It runs slightly oily into the glass, golden-yellow color, the reduction on the nose is surprisingly limited for its age, it still appears incredibly fresh, then in the mouth a smoothness, tastes like pineapple/tangerine, peach with an enormous fruit body,... for 10 € it's a joke, great cinema :-) — 3 months ago

Steinmetz has to be the best value classically styled mosel Riesling out there. I love the kabinetts in particular and the sonnenuher may be my favorite of all. — a month ago
