September 1, 2013: News, Wines of the Month
Read about another remarkable Kabinett from 2012, this time crafted by Weingut A.J. Adam.
Andreas Adam (Weingut A.J. Adam) produced a superb line-up of wines in the 2012 Mosel vintage. His dry and off-dry wines are really impressive, but his strength lies, as for many Estates in the 2012 vintage, in the fruity-styled wines.
The Dhroner Hofberg Kabinett by the A.J. Adam Estate is a remarkable example of this type of wine, even by 2012 vintage standards, and hence well worth highlighting as "Wine of the Month."
You can find out more about the superb collection by the A.J. Adam Estate in Issue No 22 (July 2013) with Part I of our extensive 2012 Vintage Report.

Dhroner Hofberg Riesling Kabinett
04 13

This gorgeous wine comes from cooler parcels situated in the backside of the Dhroner Hofberg. It is all about balance between some fresh scents (including apple, peach, white flowers and minerals) and a most playful zesty tension on the palate. All these great appealing flavors culminate into a gorgeously focused, still sweetish but so engaging finish. This is a gorgeous wine made with the great attributes of a gorgeously light Spätlese of the old days. This is highly recommended! 2021-2037
