I recently checked thru my off-site cellar and came upon some older German Rieslings and tried a couple over the Holiday.
1999 Kurt Darting 1999 Durkheimer Hochbenn Kabinett Riesling: Deep amber color and nose and palate of apple (Jonathon) and lots of petrol with adequate acidity but not crisp. Darker color than expected but very nice. Abv 9%
2001 Koehler Ruprecht Kallstadter Steinacher Kabinett: deep straw color with lots of apple fruit and slight petrol and slight apricot with a touch of chalk. Very enjoyable but could have used a bit more acidity. More to come later. Abv of %10.5
