Petershof- Oberemmel Altenberg Riesling Kabinett 2021
Oberemmel Altenberg Riesling Kabinett – A Tribute to Tradition and Elegance
For the production of the single-estate wine Oberemmel Altenberg Riesling Kabinett, the oldest vines were selected from the vineyard's best plot in Oberemmel Altenberg. These canes, planted around 1960, ensure a complexity and depth of flavor that can only be achieved through decades of development. Each and every one of the 100% healthy, small and very ripe Riesling bunches was gently pressed as whole grapes to preserve the purest flavor expression of the fruit.
After pressing, the must was only lightly clarified by sedimentation and then spontaneously fermented for almost 9 months in stainless steel tanks. This slow and natural fermentation process gives the wine an extra dimension of depth and finesse.
Aroma and Flavor Profile
The aroma of the wine offers ripe grapefruit and a light, mineral note of gunpowder, which arouses curiosity. On the palate, the wine is slim and elegant, yet with remarkable depth and precision. It is especially the interaction between acid and minerality that gives the wine its fine and vital character, where the acid plays lively with the wine's structure and gives an extraordinary freshness.
Perfect balance between sweetness and acidity
As a classic Kabinett wine , Oberemmel Altenberg Riesling Kabinett has a natural residual sweetness, which is however perfectly balanced with a high acidity. This creates a harmonious and refreshing wine experience, where sweetness and acidity go hand in hand and give a rounded and elegant finish.
