Carl Loewen Description
Making a Kabinett from these vines is a commitment to tradition. Most estates would take these 100+ year old vines and make a GG style wine and charge a lot more money. Instead, he’s offering us a piece of living history, because he feels like “it’s the right thing to do” to showcase the range of Mosel Kabinett.
James Suckling: 94 Points
Very cool and herbal, with a dense core on the light- to medium-bodied palate. Excellent minerality and wild berry character powers the long, crisp finish. It shows moderate acidity and is really dry for the category. From vines up to 100 years old.
Vinous Media: 92 Points
The 2024 Riesling Longuicher Herrenberg Kabinett was made from three parcels of old vines on red slate, all over 105 years old. Its relatively shy nose does not give away the beautifully pure, bright, tender and smooth palate. The 2024 has supple texture and a lovely 28 g/L of residual sugar that comes across as off-dry. This is bottled gentleness.
