Ich glaube, beim 2016er Kabinett-Cup war ich dabei, und ich fand die von-Hövel-Sachen furchtbar. Der 2012er Hütte(?) hatte damals den Kabinett-Cup gewonnen, aber den fand ich auch nicht pricklend. Ich hatte von Hövel insgesamt noch nie gut im Glas, aber vielleicht trinke ich immer das Falsche immer zur falschen Zeit.The 2017er Scharzhofberger Kabinett was fermented down to fully fruity levels. This is still massively under the impact of the spontaneous fermentation on the nose. It takes a few minutes before a most beautiful and telltale nose of white peach, white flowers, mint and plenty of chalky minerals, blended into elements of smoky slate to perfection. The wine is racy but also delivers a delicately smoothing feel of creamy grapefruit on the palate. While it does have the presence of a light Spätlese, the wine remains light-footed and completely elegant right into the apricot blossom infused finish and leaves one with a superbly airy, delicately fruity and mineral feel in the after-taste. Overall, the wine still remains rather shy and it is easy to overlook its greatness to come. Everything is there for making a stunning, playfully light yet complex Spätlese or Auslese like Eberhard von Kunow, the father of Max, used to make in the 1990s. 2027-2042 - 94 points
