Each year in autumn the VDP & Bernkasteler Ring members gather in Trier to auction their 'best' barrels of wine. We have been attending since 2010 and are delighted to bring a few bottles back to sell in Bordeaux
The 2024er Graacher Domprobst Riesling Kabinett #01 (the reference to #01 is written in small on the bottom right of the label) is a fruity-styled wine made from fruit picked in the prime Nikolaus sector of the vineyard. It offers a stunning nose made of prune, cassis, herbs, fine spices, and smoke. It proves still rather reduced and subtly hard on the palate at this early stage but the fruity elegance, light-footed presence and flavor intensity in the seemingly endless finish are simply to die for. This is a very pure and animating Kabinett! However, as with many 2024s, this wine absolutely needs bottle aging to give it a chance to integrate and reveal its full beauty and even has some upside potential. 2034-2054
