Niedermenniger Herrenberg Kabinett trocken 'Mutter Anna' 2020

Germany
About the Session

This is the largest list of German wines Strauss & Co has ever offered! Once regarded as the greatest wines in the world, German and specifically Mosel Riesling are long aging and investment worthy. Running deep through the Mosel, Saar and Ruwer and across celebrated vintages including the ripe 2009, the warm 2018 and the racy, acclaimed 2019. 
‘Trocken’ is the dry Riesling style, while ‘Kabinett’ is off-dry and ‘Spatlese’ and ‘Auslese’ are much sweeter. Another pointer, Is that the higher the alcohol, the more likely the wine is to be drier in style.

About this Item

Niedermenniger Herrenberg Kabinett trocken 'Mutter Anna' 2020
3 (1 x 3) 750ml

Hofgut Falkenstein is one of the Saar's most authentic estates, rebuilt from a ruin in 1985 by Erich Weber and now run with his son Johannes, making ultra-traditional, dry-tasting Rieslings from old, partly ungrafted vines on grey slate. This dry Kabinett comes from the prized Niedermenniger Herrenberg; 'Mutter Anna' names the individual Fuder (cask) in which it was raised. 2020 was an excellent Saar vintage.
