Falkenstein excel with this style of wine year after year. Steely, racy, very pure and long. Spontaneous fermentation like all the wines here with no enzymes of other additives, leads to a 'sponti' nose - showing a little reduction.

The 2024er Krettnacher Euchariusberg Riesling Kabinett Alte Reben Gisela (the reference to this internal cask name is provided in small print on the label after the AP number) was harvested in a parcel still planted with 70-80-year-old un-grafted vines in the prime Gross Schock sector of the vineyard, which was classified in the highest category on the old taxation maps, and was fermented down to barely fruity-styled levels of residual sugar. It offers a brilliant and pure nose of smoke, lime, white flowers, wet slate, herbal tea, grapefruit zest, and mountain water. The wine is very pure and has huge energetic on the palate, with grip and density. The finish is magnificently spicy, straight, and pure, with great length. What an energetic, fresh, and pure Kabinett. 2032-2049
