Description

What kind of wine it is

Krettnacker Euchariusberg Riesling Kabinett is a still white wine that faithfully interprets the character of Riesling grapes. To the eye, it appears straw yellow with bright greenish highlights. The bouquet is distinguished by a fruity fragrance, with clear aromas of green apple and citrus. On the palate, it is fresh and juicy, with a linear style that balances the slight residual sugar with lively acidity. This dynamic taste profile finishes with a pleasant persistence, making the wine perfect to accompany smoked fish, poultry, and cheese selections.

Where it comes from

This German white originates from the Mosel-Saar-Ruwer region, within the renowned Krettnacher Euchariusberg area. Under the guidance of Hofgut Falkenstein, the vineyards are managed with a rigorous agricultural approach aimed at enhancing the identity of the soil. These specific pedoclimatic conditions give the grapes a marked minerality, a distinctive feature of the region's most authentic expressions. The territorial imprint shapes an organoleptic profile of great precision, perfectly reflecting the Kabinett style, known for its lightness and measured taste balance.

How it is produced

Production aims to keep the integrity of the fruit intact, preserving the natural aromatic liveliness of the variety. The work in the cellar enhances the delicate original sweetness, supported by a vibrant freshness that gives agility and structure to the sip. Rated 96 points by Robert Parker, the wine offers a savoury and continuous finish. Served at an ideal temperature between 10 and 12 degrees, it guarantees pleasant drinkability from the outset, while also retaining a remarkable ageing potential of between 5 and 10 years for those who prefer to wait for its evolution in the bottle.

From this winery
Erich Weber of Hofgut Falkenstein makes ultra-traditional, dry-tasting Saar Rieslings. He likes to call himself "Winzer Weber." (Winzer is German for winegrower.) In other words, the emphasis is on the work in his vineyards, where he spends most of his days. With his tan and rugged face, he looks the part, too. Since his middle son, Johannes, has joined him full-time, there has been more of a focus on Rieslings with residual sugar. In recent years, their wines have also caught the attention of critics, both in and outside Germany. Read more
