Koehler Ruprecht Weissburgunder Kabinett Trocken
| Vintage: | 2019 |
|---|---|
| Description: | 100% Pinot Blanc vinified bone dry but very ripe. A late-harvest selection of older vines (40-50 years old) planted in limestone soils mostly from the Steinacker and some from Saumagen. Mineral-driven and creamy with a touch of acidity. These are extremely old-school wines from an estate making trocken (dry) wines before it was trendy. In fact, the estate cleaves to the old labeling practice of putting both the pradikät and the trocken designation on each wine (e.g., Auslese Trocken), which the Vdp no longer allows; it was one reason they left the consortium after 80 years of membership! Koehler-Ruprecht's wines are released conspicuously late and are best enjoyed with bottle age, particularly the "R" reserve wines. It is safe to say there are no other wines like these made in Germany-or anywhere. |
