GK. Becoming one of my favorite Kabinetts. Just perfect. Lime slate nose. Dreamlike it’s so pure. Palate is all energy and elegy. Perfect sweet acid balance and so juicy. Unreal finish. Spiritual. — 2 months ago

Needed 30 minutes but what it really needed is 24 hours and it’s getting that. Will report back later. Ahh yeah. 24 hours later this is stunning. Elegant and aristocratic. The sheer class of this is so impressive. Nose has lime zest, vanilla extract, and palate has that 10% opulence hit that just soars into the jagged juicy edges of the finish. 9.5 to 9.7 overnight. Genius. — 5 months ago

Such a stark yet beautiful wine. Nose is ultra mineral and the palate is pure as a the most elite Icelandic glacial melt. Just gorgeous. Showing out of its mind. So round like 22 can be and for a high acid estate this vintage is tops at Molitor. — 9 months ago

White Cap. Rocking bottle of Domprobst. One of my favorite sites. Sweet or dry. Nose is all mineral powder, some mineral chunks, lime zest, green apple skins, some other deep mineral scents and scant white flowers. Palate is full bodied and dense but also silky and impossibly dry yet ripe. What a tightrope. Juicy and barely sweet but really just ripe and mineral. Sweet tart vibes. So good. Let’s see what air does. — 3 months ago

Very nice. Great balance. Floral, dour citrus, sweetness in check but pleasant, good acid (not face melting), smidge less minerality than expected. Bit of a nice oily bitterness on the finish too. — 5 months ago

Wow this has opened up. Nose is so 21 and super steely, citrus, floral and skeletal. Palate is luscious, juicy and nervy with gorgeous fleshy fruit and unreal density yet lightness. Awesome. So dense. Weight of a spatlese but nimble as a Kabinett. Lime zest on the nose now. Seashells. Chablis like. — a year ago

Gold Capsule. I love Markus’ version of this and prefer it to JJ Prum as it’s more reserved and less opulent. Stunning yet subtle nose of green apple, pear and peach plus some apricot notes and vanilla extract. Unreal slate and mineral that is so fine and refined. Just a super perfumed nose. Palate has ridiculous energy and acidity with jaw dropping purity and intense acidity. Racy. Really racy. Palate has terrific peach and green apple fruit. Maybe a skoche honeyed but the mineral/acid spine is just incredible here. Light yet intense and built for the very long haul. Brilliant. Really elegant now with air. Amazing. — 2 years ago

Was looking for a Pinot with a bit more structure and opened up this - man, this has evolved beautifully over the last 2y! Showing such finesse & elegance right now, the tannins so fine & smooth and the fruit shining. This is really a beauty to open up now.
Red berries with undergrowth, some tree bark, a hint of exotic spice & orange zest, maybe a whiff of dark cherry. So fresh, so juicy, so enticing!!
On the palate this sings! Impeccably balanced, with great depth & elegance.
Wow. This is quite profound and a stunner!
What a beauty! — 2 years ago
