WINE DESCRIPTION
Fritz Zimmer Riesling Kabinett is a refreshing white wine that showcases the medium-sweet Kabinett style. Hailing from the famous Mosel appellation, this wine is crafted exclusively from Riesling grapes grown in truly unique vineyards. The vineyard features include steep slopes, optimal sun exposure, and a long growing season, which results in grapes with excellent ripeness and vibrant acidity. The winemaking process involves hand harvesting and gentle pressing of the grapes, followed by fermentation at controlled temperatures to preserve the purity of the flavor profile. The resulting wine is a true reflection of the Kabinett style, with a crisp acidity, vibrant fruit flavors, and a sweetness that offers the perfect counterpoint to the acidity. This Riesling Kabinett is a perfect choice for those seeking a gently sweet style or a wine pairing for spicy Asian-style dishes.
