This is Kabinett the way the Mosel made it forty years ago: Christopher Loewen deliberately makes his Herrenberg Kabinett with less residual sugar than today's norm, so it stays off-dry and light on its feet rather than drifting toward dessert. The grapes come from Herrenberg, the upper, cooler stretch of the same Longuich hillside that gives the estate its famous 1896 bottlings. This section was planted in 1903, which means vines past their hundredth birthday are going into a Kabinett, a category usually treated as the easy-drinking end of the range. The Loewens only got the site after the 2013 harvest, when Bruno Schmitt sold it to Karl-Josef Loewen. Schmitt was the sixth generation of his family to farm it, and he had no heirs. Christopher now runs the estate with his father, and the cellar work is old-school: whole clusters pressed gently, with the juice deliberately left to brown before fermentation. That's a lot of history and vine age in a Kabinett, and it's why we think this is the best way into the estate.

More about Carl Loewen

The Loewen estate has been around since 1803 and boasts some extremely important grand crus sites with some very, very old vines. Of all the underrated estates in the Mosel, it is perplexing that Loewen has stayed under the radar for so long. The wines are pure magic – viscerally expressing the terroir of truly great crus, nurtured by attentive, sustainable vineyard care beyond most growers in the Mosel.

Tasting Notes & Food Pairings

Perfect Pairings

Thai green papaya salad, Vietnamese summer rolls with nuoc cham, smoked trout on rye with horseradish cream, pork schnitzel with a cucumber-dill salad, mildly spicy Sichuan dan dan noodles.

Tasting Profile

Expect a traditional Mosel Kabinett with less sweetness than most modern examples: green apple, white peach and lime, plus a stony, slightly savoury minerality typical of iron-rich hillside soils. Typically the body is light and wispy and the acidity bright, with the gentle sweetness reading as ripe fruit rather than sugar. The finish should be off-dry, crisp and lingering.

WINE GUIDES

German Wines

Is there a better grape than Riesling? Is there a better value? Its fruit purity, its perfume, and its mineral nuance are all unparalleled. And for centuries, the top German Rieslings were priced accordingly: at least as expensive as the top red wines of Bordeaux and Burgundy. But nowadays you could spend a lifetime exploring Germany’s great Riesling-producing regions while staying well within your budget. You might take an occasional break to try Germany’s other white grapes or perhaps a glass of Spätburgunder (the local name for Pinot Noir). It’s time to get started!
