Vineyard
The approximately 63-hectare steep slope with south-west exposure features deep, grey weathered slate soils. Wines from this vineyard are distinguished by expressive minerality in fine interplay with pronounced fruit.
Winemaking
The grapes were harvested in October. 100% healthy fruit was gently crushed and briefly macerated on the aromatic and mineral-rich grape skins. The must was then slowly and cool-fermented with indigenous yeasts, allowing the wine’s multifaceted, fruity aromas to fully develop. Gentle maturation in stainless steel tanks with extended ageing on the lees followed after fermentation.
Food Pairing
This racy, light Kabinett, with its fresh and invigorating character, is wonderfully suited as an aperitif and pairs beautifully with spicy and piquant starters as well as acidity-driven dishes such as sushi, raw fish starters with soy or ponzu sauces, papaya salad with mozzarella, teriyaki skewers, dim sum, and also with tartare served with pickled gherkins and capers.
