Alluring scents of acacia and nutmeg along with alkaline and fusil scents mark the nose of Kubler’s 2009 Riesling K. Salt and pungent lime peel, convey some invigoration in a satisfyingly juicy finish. Plan on enjoying this over the next couple of years. (Alkaline mineral notes took on a slightly dank aspect in Kubler’s ostensibly superior 2008 Riesling Breitenberg.) Philippe Kubler is among the few Alsace growers I met to have elected – quite reasonably in my opinion – to market some of his 2009s ahead of (and others concurrent with) the corresponding 2008s. He notes that “the styles are dramatically different, and the 2008s deserve a year or longer in the bottle whereas the 2009s are ready to drink.” That said, I suspect that save for the V.T.s among them, Kubler’s 2008s aren’t really built for long aging.Importers include Chateau St. Martin, Bellevue, WA; tel.
