Plenty of spearmint and woody notes here with a stony edge and lime pith. The palate has a taut, dry feel with grip and bite on the finish. Drink now.

The 2018 Rausch Kabinett is ripe and floral on the nose, while the palate is lush, moderately sweet and filigreed, revealing a nice, stimulating mineral grip. Tasted in June 2019.

This was the lightest possible Kabinett at 93 Oechsle, according to Hanno Zilliken. Delicate and fragrant – with absolutely unmistakable Saar style. Just the sort of thing to please the old guard – rightly so. Dances along. Gentle balance and massive refreshment value. (JR)
