Riesling Kabinett feinherb

2008 Mosel Riesling

The Ackermann Riesling Kabinett feinherb from the renowned Mosel region is a delightful expression of the Riesling varietal, showcasing the classic characteristics that this grape is adored for. This 2008 vintage presents a beautiful pale straw color that shimmers in the glass, hinting at its youthful vibrancy. The wine is lightly bodied, offering a crisp yet smooth texture that dances on the palate. With a refreshing acidity that brings brightness and liveliness, it pairs beautifully with various dishes. The fruit intensity is prominent, revealing charming notes of green apple and juicy pear, alongside a subtle herbal undertone that complements its profile. This feinherb style leans towards the off-dry side, with a whisper of residual sweetness that adds depth without overpowering the wine’s elegant finish. Perfect for any occasion, the Ackermann Riesling Kabinett is an outstanding testament to the exceptional terroir of the Mosel region.

When it comes to quality Riesling, few places can rival Germany's Mosel region. This sheer-sided valley in Germany parallels the river of the same name and is home to some of the world's steepest vineyards. Riesling grown here is prized throughout the world for its slight sweetness, perfectly balanced by crisp acidity and aromatic floral perfume. Notes of green fruit and Meyer lemon add to the pleasant tang, with mineral touches of wet slate, beeswax and—in some aged examples—even petroleum too. It is all thanks to Mosel's very cool climate. Temperatures in the summer often don't even rise above 65 degrees. This allows for a long growing season, concentrating flavors and creating beautiful acidity.
