2017 Riesling Kabinett x 2

[Rahsaan]

2017 Lauer Ayler Kupp Kabinett Fass 8
Opens nicely with a bit of air to show brisk crisp and firm with verdant lime flavors; speaking very nicely of the Saar and so easy to drink too quickly.

2017 Vollenweider Wolfer Goldgrube Kabinett
This also opens nicely with air, as the flavors get more and more vivid over several hours. Tangy, juicy, firm, not dense or heavy, but decently layered and long and very nice. Again, so easy to drink too quickly.

Only thing better than a great Kabi is x 2 Kabi

Ha! I'll second that emotion. Although these particular wines were drunk on separate nights.

Really?!? Smokey Robinson is pablum? Nah, he's mother's milk, Silly!

 

[Jonathan Loesberg]

I can be as snootily elitist as the next dead white male, but dissing Smokey Robinson really seems to be taking the attitude a bit too far for me.

 

[robert ames]

my comment was about that song. no doubt that smokey robinson is one of the greats, but but i find, for instance, 'the tracks of my tears" or 'tears of a clown' to be much better songs.

"Pablum is a processed cereal for infants originally marketed and co-created by the Mead Johnson Company in 1931. The product was tested on Indigenous Children in Canadian residential schools (my italics), and then further developed at The Hospital for Sick Children in Toronto, Ontario, to combat infant malnutrition."

and it's delicious, but it's no substitute for marmite on toast.
