Homonym: Kabinett (Cabinet)
Kabinett is a term used in the context of German wine classification, specifically referring to a style of Riesling wine. It is characterized by its lightness and lower alcohol content, typically ranging from 7% to 10%. Kabinett wines are made from grapes that are harvested at an early stage of ripeness, resulting in a fresh and fruity flavor profile.
These wines are often enjoyed for their crisp acidity and can be paired with a variety of foods. Kabinett is one of the categories in the Prädikatswein classification, which includes other styles like Spätlese and Auslese, each representing different levels of grape ripeness and sweetness.
