Wéingut Max Ferdinand Richter Riesling Kabinett, Erdener Treppchen, Qmp, 2021 Mosel

100% Riesling

For 300 years, the Richter family has owned and faremed vineyards in the central Mosel area.

Working 40 acres of vines, they are masters of their craft and have consistently produced some of the regions best Rieslings. The deep valley, cut through the landscape by the Mosel River, creates some of the wine worlds most impressive and precipitious slopes on which to grow vines.

Using knowledge gathered over generations, the Richters fastidiously work the terraces, focusing on low yields, natural fertilizers and cultivation in harmony with geology. Selective hand-picking, meticulous work in the cellar and the use of old oak 960 litre Moselle fuders create single-vineyard cuvees that offer superb drinking but also great ageing potential.
