Wine Spectator Review:
A very ripe version, with apricot, black currant and orange notes offset by mouthwatering acidity. Builds in intensity to a lingering aftertaste of sun-ripened orchard fruit. Drink now through 2018.

Parker Review:
Redolent of honeysuckle, fresh strawberry and red raspberry, Christoffels 2009 Urziger Wurzgarten Riesling Kabinett mingles those features into a soothing yet refreshing, refined yet exuberant lime sorbet-like palate presence. Following in the recent mold of Kabinetts that Christoffel never tires of reminding the taster would have been bottled as Auslesen 15 years ago let alone in the 1980s, this nonetheless preserves elegance as well as uncanny lift in its long finish, and ought to be worth following for 15-20 years.
