Mnsterer Rheinberg Riesling Kabinett

Variety: Riesling
Region:
Nahe
Vineyard: Münsterer Rheinberg
Soil Type: Weathered quartzite and sandy loam
Fermentation & Élevage: Crushed directly and fermented half in Hösch stückfass and half in stainless steel
Farming: Practicing Organic

The Rheinberg Kabinett comes entirely from the quartz dominated higher sections of the Rheinberg hill, facing south east. Vines are around 25 years old with much of the vineyard planted in the 1990s. Harvested in the beginning of October at 70 hectoliters per hectare, the vines in Rheinberg were farmed without chemical fertilizers or herbicides. Grapes are harvested, crushed directly and fermented half in Hösch stuckfass and half in stainless steel. Fermentation is natural with no added cultured yeast. The wine is racked into stainless steel and cooled to stop fermentation, in late April, and bottled in the beginning of May.

"Sleek, cool and citrusy with a lovely delicacy, this is a beautiful riesling Kabinett that's almost dry and has a wonderful liveliness on the light-bodied palate. Very clean lemon and pomelo finish. From organically grown grapes. Drink or hold. Screw cap."

"This juicy, off-dry Kabinett has very lively acidity and a zesty freshness that makes it very appealing. Everything from ripe apple to freshly squeezed citrus! Excellent balance at the long, crisp and expressive finish. From organically grown grapes. Drink now. Screw cap."
