2019 Falkenstein Krettnacher Eucharuisberg Riesling Kabinett Alte Reben AP8 "Gisela"

 This wine knows what it is compared to the  2019 Falkenstein Niedermenniger Herrenberg Riesling Spätlese feinherb we had recently (which was way too young and temperamental).

It's also a very rich Kabinett-level wine, if you like that... superior aging potential... balanced fruit and acidity...

Alte Reben cuvee is dependable year in and year out... I suppose "Gisela" is a specific barrel (?). Albeit, this appears to be a particularly rich vintage, based on my admittedly limited, but very very enjoyable experience with Erich and Johannes Weber's wines courtesy of introduction through @"Marius Fries"...

The fruit here exhibits a very noble tropical finsh after being open a few hours that I think is primed for further cellaring...
