2025 Technical Specifications
Classification Kabinett
Region Mosel
Production Details The producer divides the 2025 harvest into three phases. Green grapes harvested after the rainfall, free of botrytis and with lower must weights, were primarily classified as QbA and Wiltinger Braune Kupp Kabinett. Before a later noble-rot selection in Wiltinger Braune Kupp, only Kabinett had been harvested there. The estate harvest ran from September 17 to October 18 over 14 picking days, but exact picking dates and yield for this Kabinett were not specified; the stated final yield of less than 20 hl/ha applies to the estate vintage.
Tasting Notes Taut, more serious than usual, complex.

2024 Technical Specifications
Region Mosel
Production Details Late frost severely affected Wiltinger Braune Kupp. After delayed picking, the producer reports that Kabinett and Spätlese were made only in very limited quantities. The estate produced 7.5 Fuder, approximately 450 L/ha; this is an estate-level vintage figure, not a yield measurement for this wine or vineyard.
