Wine Information
ERDENER TREPPCHEN RIESLING KABINETT
The Erdener Treppchen Kabinett is a precocious wine, with red fruit aromas and dense minerality. An elegant yet muscular wine, it makes an ideal aperitif, as well as an excellent partner for lighter seafood and poultry dishes.
THE 2015 VINTAGE
Under close to perfect conditions, we were able to harvest grapes with optimal must weights and acidity levels, producing wines in all quality levels. The vintage also gave
us excellent yields, with a beautiful balance of ripeness and acidity. The wines are dense and concentrated, but with the delicate and graceful style of the Mosel.
