Ellergrub is Weiser-Künstler's top site.
While it may not have the same name recognition as Wehlener Sonnenuhr or Bernkasteler Doctor, many German wine fanatics place Ellergrub among the best in the Middle Mosel.
Weiser-Künstler's steeply terraced parcel in Ellergrub is home to hundred-year-old ungrafted vines. Their Ellergrub Kabinett, mainly sourced from these ancient vines, is perennially one of our favorites in all of Germany.
Across the board, Weiser-Künstler produced an amazing 2023 collection, wines of stunning clarity and harmony. The Kabinett highlights what makes the vintage at Weiser-Künstler so special. It possesses brilliant purity, riveting cut, and serious intensity. We love how the Kabinett comes across as packed with complexity and at the same time completely weightless.
Weiser-Kunstler is one of the finest estates in the Mosel. There are just no compromises here. The Ellergrub Kabinett is one of their most sought-after wines from this very small estate. It's a pleasure to be able to offer this.

Mosel Fine Wines: "The 2023er Enkircher Ellergrub Riesling Kabinett was made from fruit harvested at 85° Oechsle on largely un-grafted vines still trained on single pole and was fermented down to fruity-styled levels of residual sugar (56 g/l). It displays a quite smoky and herbal nose of licorice, aniseed, minty herbs, black tea, wet stone, flintstone, and plum. The wine shows more richness and ripeness on the palate, where some yellow and juicy fruits come into play. Yet this is well balanced by some herbal flavors, and the finish has more candied citrusy fruits and almond. This is a superb Kabinett which combines intensity and freshness."
