Special characteristic
  • Contains sulphites

Hand-picked and hand-selected grapes. Gentle pressing followed by slow fermentation in stainless steel (90%) and large oak (10%). Filtering then bottling.

Medium lemon. Distinctive, textbook Riesling fruit on the nose. Delicately aromatic and full of character. Very precise minerality on a pure, stimulating palate. A wonderfully complex Kabinett.

Ockfener Bockstein, one of the classic vineyards on the Saar, is a silvery grey slate incline that opens up like an amphitheatre.
