The 2014 Dr. Heyden 'Oppenheimer Kabinett' comes from the estate vineyards of Kreuz and Herrenberg where the average age of vines are 25 years. These two declassified estate single vineyards (both with loam soils with some limestone) are located near the village of Oppenheim. This wine begins with aromas of wet stone, Meyer lemon zest and orange blossoms with crushed white flowers. This leads to flavors of Mandarin orange rind, lemon/lime, blue slate and unripe pear alongside vibrant minerality. Very solid (Best 2016-2022) - March, 2016 (OB)
