The 2023 Schonfels Kabinett N°111, as it is referred to in the central part of the label, was made from fruit harvested at 78-79° Oechsle in this steep, south-east facing Lieu-Dit overseeing the Saar, and was fermented down to fruity-styled levels of residual sugar (50 g/l). This hay-yellow- colored wine offers a beautiful nose made of grapefruit puree, barbeque herbs, and whipped cream. The wine develops the subtle creaminess of a Spätlese paired with the tart raciness of a Kabinett on the palate. This sensation of a mouthwatering Spätlese carries over right into the juicy and comparatively multi-layered finish. This is a gorgeous fruity-styled wine in the making but one which will benefit from some bottle aging. 2028-2043
