Description
The classic style of this Riesling Kabinett is intimately tied to the extraordinary fruit that Darting was blessed with. The ripe green apple base has brilliant acidity that keeps the wine lean and focused. This is a wonderful German treasure.

 Darting’s wines have great integrity and his wines from 2001, 2002, 2003 and 2004 are pure hedonism. In Germany, a tiny number of wineries are considered “classified growths” and this one is near the top of the list.

 Kabinett is a QmP (Qualitatswein mit Praedikat) produced from the best bunches of grapes from the main harvest.

Origin
OK...let’s take the top importer of great German wines in the US, Terry Theise, and then let’s ask him who his best producer is for quality and value. With no hesitation he says Kurt Darting.

 “Extraordinary Value For Money” for superbly made reductively brilliant wines,” he is quoted.

 The “reductive” creed basically says that every time you handle a wine you reduce its quality. This minimal contact allows the true brilliance of the wine to show through!

 With 12,500 cases released yearly never hesitate when selecting...

 Food Parings
This Kabinett would be perfect with shrimp scampi, stuffed Maine lobster, seafood salad or as a sipper with appetizers for your next shindig.
