Krettnacher Euchariusberg Riesling Kabinett Alte Reben by Hofgut Falkenstein is a still semi-aromatic white wine produced in the renowned German region of Mosel-Saar-Ruwer. This pure Riesling belongs to the prestigious Kabinett classification, an expression of a perfect balance between a light and pleasant residual sweetness and a lively mineral freshness. On the nose, it presents intense fruity aromas, while on the palate it is distinguished by an elegant, fluid profile and remarkable persistence.

Where it comes from
This German expression originates in the dedicated area of Mosel-Saar-Ruwer, a territory historically ideal for the cultivation of Riesling.

This careful approach allows the aromatic profile to be kept intact, providing an optimal flavour balance that ensures a long-lasting finish and excellent ageing potential.
