WTN: Trocken, got my chips cashed in

[David M. Bueker]

2019 Weingut Max Ferd. Richter Graacher Himmelreich Riesling Kabinett trocken - Germany, Mosel Saar Ruwer (2/26/2021)
Continuing to taste through the 2019 range, and this is rather tighter in expression than the Himmelreich Kabinett I had earlier in the week. It’s very light in color, barely registering as yellow at all. The nose is all crisp peach and lemon zest, with a bit of flinty mineral accent. On the palate it’s a bit wan, feeling like it’s either would up completely tight, or maybe just lacking a bit of fruit density. The purity is certainly there. I left 1/2 to check on over the next few nights. We’ll see if it picks up some additional palate depth.

Any thoughts on this one from Austria?

Nice producer. Not top shelf, but very reliable. I would try it if I saw it.
