🏰 The 2001 Egon Muller Scharzhofberger Riesling Kabinett hails from 【one of the greatest modern German Riesling vintages】, celebrated for its exceptional structural longevity and the Saar sub-region's extraordinary elegance and age-worthiness. This Kabinett offers an amazing intensity with high acidity and intense fruit, showcasing a perfect balance of sugar and acidity. Expect a nose of 【pear, pear pip, slight diesel, wet rocks, lemon peel, white flowers, spices, herbs, citrusy fruit, grassy, and lime aromas】. The palate is refreshing, glossy yet firm, spare, and delicate, with spiced pear cider, naked slate, grapefruit, candied lemon, and a delicate creaminess, dancing like a ballerina on the tongue with piercing acidity and fresh, sweet fruit. 🍴 This versatile Riesling Kabinett is magnificent with spicy Asian cuisine like Thai curries, Sichuan dishes, and dim sum. It also pairs beautifully with baked ham, sushi, shrimp tempura, pork schnitzel, apple prosciutto salad, smoked salmon, fatty poultry, and mildly salty cheeses such as Brie or Camembert. 🥂 An outstanding choice for a special occasion, a sophisticated tasting, or as a cherished addition to a cellar. This wine is in a good drinking window now and should continue to evolve for decades. Serve well-chilled, around 8-10°C (46-50°F).
