This 2020 Riesling Kabinett from Ockfener Bockstein in the Mosel, Germany, is made from Riesling grapes that are gently crushed and left to rest in the press for up to three hours, so the skins can give up their components to the juice. The grapes are then pneumatically pressed and drained by gravity into stainless steel tanks below the presses. The juice settles overnight, then the clear juice is racked into other tanks. It ferments spontaneously with yeasts found naturally in the cellar, which allows a complex array of flavors to develop.
