"Loosen’s 2005 Urziger Wurzgarten Riesling Kabinett is the first wine here today to display a yeasty shroud over the nose, but that blows off to reveal classic aromas of strawberry and lime. Fresh, juicy strawberry and lime fruit persist on the palate along with impressive measures of salt, smoke, and wet stone manifestations of minerality. Here is another highly successful attempt to hang on to the style and concept of Kabinett."
