The Ellergrub Kabinett is the masterpiece of the Kabinett lineup, the most mineral and dense, the most structured. I’d say that this is most often the most complex and normally the toughest of the Kabinetts; it can require time to join together completely.
In 2024 this wine is absolutely psychedelic with acid of 10.5g, 48g of RS and just 7.5%. A relatively petite version of this Kabinett with a deep nose that comes from the large portion of ungrafted vines that are 110-years-old and older. There is a flinty and nearly smokey tone before the yellow fruits arrive in the palate finishing with fine herbal flavors. A zappy and elegant wine.

| Mosel Fine Wines | The 2023er Enkircher Ellergrub Riesling Kabinett was made from fruit harvested at 85° Oechsle on largely un-grafted vines still trained on single pole and was fermented down to fruity-styled levels of residual sugar (56 g/l). It displays a quite smoky and herbal nose of licorice, aniseed, minty herbs, black tea, wet stone, flintstone, and plum. The wine shows more richness and ripeness on the palate, where some yellow and juicy fruits come into play. Yet this is well balanced by some herbal flavors, and the finish has more candied citrusy fruits and almond. This is a superb Kabinett which combines intensity and freshness. | No 71 June 2024 |
