The grapes for our classic Prädikat wines come exclusively from our monopole vineyard, Karthäuserhofberg, with its optimal south-southwest exposure and slopes of up to 55%. The unique microclimate and pink-copper Devonian slate soil create ideal conditions for exceptional Rieslings.

Hand-harvested grapes are gently pressed and fermented in stainless steel under controlled conditions. The wine then matures on the full lees for six to eight months, as time and patience are key.

A spicy, wild-yeast aroma leads, followed by juicy notes of peach, grapefruit, and white currant, with the slate’s minerality shining through. On the palate, it’s vibrant and dense, with well-integrated sweetness balanced by lively acidity—a Kabinett that will reveal new facets over the next two decades.
