The wine comes from the steep, slate-and-quartz-driven Krettnacher Euchariusberg vineyard, specifically parcels in the Gross Schock sector, planted with old, partially ungrafted vines. It is a site defined by razor-sharp acidity, smoky slate minerality and intense aromatic lift. \u003cspan class=\"\" data-state=\"closed\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"536\" data-end=\"908\"\u003e“Kugel Peter” is not a separate vineyard but an internal cask (Fuder) designation, meaning this wine is a snapshot of a specific barrel selection within the vintage rather than a blended estate cuvée. Each Fuder is vinified separately, reinforcing Falkenstein’s philosophy of extreme parcel transparency and cask-level expression. \u003cspan class=\"\" data-state=\"closed\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"910\" data-end=\"1303\"\u003eThe 2024 vintage continues the estate’s style of low-intervention winemaking: spontaneous fermentation in traditional large oak casks, very low alcohol (around 7%), and a balance that typically sits between off-dry and delicately dry depending on the year. The result is a Kabinett that prioritises tension and drinkability over overt sweetness or polish. \u003cspan class=\"\" data-state=\"closed\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1305\" data-end=\"1741\"\u003eIn the glass, “Kugel Peter” is typically extremely pure and high-definition: lime zest, green apple, white peach and citrus oil sit over a core of wet slate, smoke and herbal lift. The palate is light-bodied but densely structured in a linear sense, with electric acidity and a faint natural spritz giving it energy and lift. The finish is long, saline and sharply focused, with a distinctive Saar austerity that rewards time in bottle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1743\" data-end=\"1932\"\u003eThis is not a soft or easy Kabinett; it is a highly detailed, almost architectural expression of Riesling where precision, energy and site expression matter more than immediate fruit charm.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"appellance","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50281307635905,"sku":null,"price":82.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0843\/3428\/0897\/files\/Hofgut_Falkenstein_Kugel_Peter_Krettnacher_Euchariusberg_Riesling_Kabinett_2024.webp?v=1780297000","url":"https:\/\/appellance.com\/products\/hofgut-falkenstein-kugel-peter-krettnacher-euchariusberg-riesling-kabinett-2024","provider":"Appellance","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
