Reichsgraf von Kesselstatt's Riesling Kabinett represents the quintessential expression of classic Mosel winemaking, drawing from the estate's extraordinary slate-rich terroirs. Crafted from 100% Riesling grapes hand-harvested from steep, sun-drenched slopes, this wine showcases the delicate balance of vibrant acidity and natural residual sweetness that defines the Kabinett style. The estate's unique position, with historic vineyard holdings spanning the Mosel, Saar, and Ruwer valleys, allows for a masterful blending of fruit that captures the diverse mineral signatures of Devonian slate. Fermented cool in stainless steel to preserve its pristine fruit character and electric tension, this Kabinett pays homage to centuries of winemaking tradition, delivering a feather-light body coupled with intense aromatic complexity.
🍾 wine.about_producer
With a winemaking legacy spanning over 650 years since its establishment in 1349, Reichsgraf von Kesselstatt is one of the Mosel region's most historic and prestigious estates. Based at the majestic Schloss Marienlay in Morscheid, Germany, the estate was long held by the imperial counts of Kesselstatt before being acquired by the Günther Reh family in 1978, who elevated its global reputation under the visionary leadership of the late Annegret Reh-Gartner. The winery is uniquely distinguished by its exceptional vineyard holdings across all three of the region's river valleys—the Mosel, Saar, and Ruwer—including the legendary monopole Josephshof in Graach, as well as prime parcels in Scharzhofberg and Kaseler Nies'chen. Embracing sustainable viticulture and minimal-intervention cellar practices, Reichsgraf von Kesselstatt produces world-class, mineral-driven Rieslings that beautifully articulate their diverse terroirs, ranging from precise, vibrant Kabinetts to legendary, long-lived Trockenbeerenauslese expressions.
