Oberhauser Leistenberg Riesling Kabinett, Donnhoff
Description
The Leistenberg vineyard lies in a small side valley of the Nahe, right next to Oberhausen. The warm soils of this steep slope are almost exclusively made up of decomposed grey clay slate. Since the hill faces south-east, the morning sun dries the vines early on in the day so the grapes remain healthy. The afternoon sun is not so strong, allowing for a long ripening period without the vines achieving excessively high alcohol content. A perfect vineyard for Kabinett wines with high minerality and of subtle elegance.
