St. Urbans-Hof Kabinett Riesling Piersporter Goldtropfchen 2010

St. Urbans-Hof Kabinett Riesling Piersporter Goldtropfchen 2010 (WS93. $29.99, SKU 598003) I was looking for a white wine for a banquet and found this sitting next to the Ockfener Bockstien that I tasted before. The sweetness code at LDB was “03”. The name was really long but it gave me more idea what the wine was like. Kabinett was one the styles of making Riesling by the Germans. I tasted it with some takeout Chinese food and found it went well by itself or with the food. The nose was sweet with immediate taste of apple. The body was full and the finish was long. My tasting panel also found it to be very intense. It is good from 2011 to 2030. At this price, I think it is a great deal for a 93 point Riesling. There are 45 bottles at 39^th and Cambie, 11 bottles at Dunbar and 20 bottles at Park Royal in West Vancouver. The bottle looks exactly like the Ockfener Bockstien, so do not confuse the two.
