2017 Schloss Johannisberger Kabinett Rotlack

The 2017 Schloss Johannisberger Riesling Kabinett Rotlack is pure, bright and flinty on the quartzite-dominated nose with its stony and herbal notes. Lush and piquant on the palate, this is a light and medium-sweet Schloss Johannisberger with a lush but also fresh, piquant, even salty finish. Still young, with a serious structure, this wine will benefit from further bottle aging. Pretty reductive right now.
