Hofgut Falkenstein Ockfener Bockstein Kabinett Alte Reben Mia 2024 - the frost came, Mia stayed. And how! Picture-perfect Kabinett with rarity value!
For many generations, our family has cultivated vineyards in the Ockfener Bockstein. In 2021, we decided to re-lease the land - and no option seemed more exciting than a collaboration with the Kabinett masters from the Konzer Tälchen! Now we are presenting the fourth vintage of Falkenstein from the Ockfener Bockstein - from a parcel in the middle section with over 50-year-old vines, once tended by our Grandma Mia. The growing season began inauspiciously: After a warm Easter weekend, the vines in the Saar valley sprouted early - a risk, as frost remained a danger until the Ice Saints. And indeed, as feared, late frosts destroyed most of the 2024 harvest in the early morning hours of April 23rd and 24th - even before grapes had formed. Miraculously, Mia remained largely unscathed, while Schorsch suffered a total loss. In the end, we were able to harvest about a third of the usual quantity - but the remaining grapes were of exceptional quality: aromatic, concentrated, and absolutely promising. After the obligatory hand-picking, the grapes were quickly brought to the Falkenstein estate, where they were immediately pressed. 80° Oechsle with excellent aroma - a bullseye! The must was then left to settle overnight, and the clear must was transferred to the cool wooden barrel cellar the next morning, where it was fermented with natural yeasts in traditional 1,000-liter Fuder barrels. The result is an enchanting Kabinett that compensates for all the hardships of the vintage!
Wow - what a nose! Profound, focused, and absolutely captivating: a complex interplay of white peach, quince, and white currants, underpinned by a powerful, herbaceous profile. The distinct hop note and even a delicate cannabis note provide an almost woody, slightly earthy depth - like forest soil after a summer rain. On the palate, pure energy: juicy, powerful, with more volume and fruit than Gisela, but equally precisely structured. A delicate yellow-fruited base meets a silky texture, supported by a cool, stony minerality with a smoky slate touch. Somewhat fuller-bodied, very well structured, and with a pronounced mineral backbone. Lingers long - precise, clear, with real emphasis. A Kabinett with depth, herbal spice, and razor-sharp contour - powerful yet weightless, with a long, salty-fresh finish.
Mosel Fine Wines on Hofgut Falkenstein Ockfener Bockstein Kabinett Alte Reben Mia 2024:
"The 2024er Ockfener Bockstein Riesling Kabinett Alte Reben Mia (the reference to this internal cask name is provided in small print on the label after the AP number) is made from fruit harvested on old vines planted in the 1960s and was fermented down to barely fruity-styled levels of residual sugar. It displays a gorgeously refined and delicately aromatic nose of white peach, elderflower, almond cream, pink grapefruit, lime zest, thyme, herbs, and flintstone. The wine is tight and beautifully spicy on the palate, with intense citrusy and fresh fruits. The aftertaste is taut, hugely long, and spicy. 2034-2049" 96P

The clear crystals in your wine are tartrate crystals. These crystals form through the crystallization of potassium bitartrate, a natural component of wine that can form during the aging process. Tartrate crystals are completely harmless and do not affect the taste or quality of the wine. You can simply let the crystals settle and pour carefully, or remove them by decanting.
