"Da GGs bei Loosen nur von alten Weinbergen stammen, kommt aus dieser jüngeren Anlage ein Kabinett. Grauschiefer führt eher zu körperreichen Rieslingen, deshalb weist auch dieser eine gewisse Opulenz auf. Sehr viel grüner Apfel, knackige Säure, mit 40 g/l Restzucker sehr saftig. Jedes Jahr werden Loosens Kabinetts ein wenig trockener."

"Shards of crushed mineral and spice add complexity to hits of lime soda and honey in this electric off-dry kabinett. Its citrus flavors are intensely concentrated, highlighted by spine-tingling acidity and a lip-smacking honey finish. Enjoy now?2028. Anna Lee C. Iijima"

"There's a buzz of electric acidity that hits the midpalate here, softened by tones of luscious peach, pineapple and guava. It's delicate and thrilling on the palate but lavishly floral and fruity through a long, reverberating finish."

"Sun-kissed nectarine, tangerine and grapefruit flavors abound in this exceptionally light-footed Riesling. Off-dry in style, it's juicy and forward yet spine-tingling and racy. The finish is pristine, dry and intensely mineral."
yr. 2014 Wine Enthusiast:
91 of 100 Points.
"Wine Enthusiast" has rated the wine "Dr. Loosen Bernkasteler Lay Riesling Kabinett" from the vintage 2014 on 01.01.2016 with 91 of 100 points.
"More blossomy and mineral than ripe or ruddy, there's a demure elegance to this bristling off-dry Riesling. Crisp, almost crystalline flavors of tangerine and yellow peach accentuate and lengthen the palate. It's a deftly cutting wine to drink now through 2020."
yr. 2013 Wine Enthusiast:

"Wine Enthusiast" has rated the wine "Dr. Loosen Bernkasteler Lay Riesling Kabinett" from the vintage 2013 on 01.01.2015 with 88 of 100 points.
"A touch of caramel adds ripeness to sweet honeydew and tangerine flavors in this taut, tight wine. Off dry in style, yet searing with high-octane acidity, it bestows a kiss of sweet stone-fruit to brighten the moderately long finish."
yr. 2012 Wine Enthusiast:
91 of 100 Points.
"Wine Enthusiast" has rated the wine "Dr. Loosen Bernkasteler Lay Riesling Kabinett" from the vintage 2012 on 01.01.2014 with 91 of 100 points.
"This semisweet Riesling balances an intensely fruit-forward profile of ripe yellow cherry and quince flavors against a backdrop of crisp, tart tangerine acidity. It's sunny and bright, yet elegantly composed, with a bristle of fresh herb notes that linger on the finish."
yr. 2008 Wine Enthusiast:
90 of 100 Points.
"Wine Enthusiast" has rated the wine "Dr. Loosen Bernkasteler Lay Riesling Kabinett" from the vintage 2008 on 01.01.2010 with 90 of 100 points.
"Give this wine some air before you serve it in order to appreciate the entire range of its dense aromatics, which flow from delicate tangerine, to peach and on into the mineral end of the spectrum. The palate is juicy, with an energizing tension between the nervy acidity and delicate sweetness. Finishes long, with a slate undertow. Try with cod in a miso sauce."
yr. 2007 Wine Enthusiast:
91 of 100 Points.
"Wine Enthusiast" has rated the wine "Dr. Loosen Bernkasteler Lay Riesling Kabinett" from the vintage 2007 on 01.01.2009 with 91 of 100 points.
"Has a flinty, minerally edge to the aromas, which are otherwise classic Mosel: green apple with a lemon-lime chaser. It's light, lean, racy and sweet all at once, with a cool stone core and tremendous length and cut on the finish."
yr. 2006 Wine Enthusiast:
90 of 100 Points.
"Wine Enthusiast" has rated the wine "Dr. Loosen Bernkasteler Lay Riesling Kabinett" from the vintage 2006 on 01.01.2008 with 90 of 100 points.
"Loosen's hot streak from 2005 has continued into '06, to judge by this beauty. Pineapple and apple flavors are enlivened by streaks of lime and enriched by hints of honey. A bit of unrelasaed CO2 adds raciness to the crisp, refreshing finish."

"(2006) A little more smoke and slate, with delicate apple fruit and a certain peachiness, with soft, sherbetty minerality. The palate is flooded with sweet, ripe, very lush and peachy fruit. Plenty of acidity and fruity crisp, racy quality. Lovely length and definition."

"Wine Enthusiast" has rated the wine "Dr. Loosen Bernkasteler Lay Riesling Kabinett" from the vintage 2003 on 01.01.2005 with 82 of 100 points.
"Pungently grassy and grapefruity on the nose, with strange apple and pink grapefruit flavors on the soft, sweet palate. A rare misstep from Ernie Loosen? Imported by Loosen Bros. USA."

"Wine Enthusiast" has rated the wine "Dr. Loosen Bernkasteler Lay Riesling Kabinett" from the vintage 2002 on 01.01.2004 with 88 of 100 points.
"Light in weight and possessed of a fine balance between sweetness and acidity, this is an ideal apéretif wine. Pungent lime and green apple aromas combine with green gage plum notes in a mouthwatering ensemble."
yr. 2001 Wine Enthusiast:
90 of 100 Points.
"Wine Enthusiast" has rated the wine "Dr. Loosen Bernkasteler Lay Riesling Kabinett" from the vintage 2001 on 01.01.2003 with 90 of 100 points.
"If the hallmark of the Mosel is delicacy combined with intense flavors, then this wine from the great Dr. Loosen estate hits the mark perfectly. It has green floral notes, and aromas of summer flowers. Lightly sweet flavors and a touch of green tannins give way to intense tastes of ripe peaches. ?R.V."
yr. 1999 Wine Enthusiast:

"Wine Enthusiast" has rated the wine "Dr. Loosen Bernkasteler Lay Riesling Kabinett" from the vintage 1999 on 01.01.2001 with 87 of 100 points.
"The name translates as ?the slate of Bernkastel? and this wine lives up to its name. Peachy-tropical ripe fruit is offset nicely by the pronounced mineral scent and texture, and a slight spritz. The stony side of its nature glides into a chalk-tinged, palate-cleansing finish with sweet pear flavors."
