Königl. preuss. Domänen-Kellerei (Kloster Eberbach) - Steinberger Riesling Cabinet 1909 - 0,7 l

A remarkable piece of Rheingau wine history, this Steinberger Riesling Cabinet from the 1909 vintage was produced by the Königliche Preußische Domänen-Kellerei at Kloster Eberbach. Sourced from the celebrated Steinberg vineyard, it offers a rare opportunity to experience a mature German Riesling from one of the region’s most distinguished historic estates. The 0.7-litre bottle is presented in an elegant wooden case.

Tasting Notes
The wine is described as golden in colour, with the depth and warmth expected from more than a century of bottle age. Its bouquet is intense and mature, combining notes of ripe peach, apricot and pineapple with delicate nuances of honey and spice. On the palate, it is full-bodied and complex, with a harmonious balance between sweetness and acidity. The finish is long, elegant and persistent. As a 1909 vintage, this is a collectible historical wine rather than a conventional young-drinking Riesling; its condition and character will naturally depend on provenance, storage and fill level.

Production
The wine comes from the Steinberg vineyard in the Rheingau, a site renowned for producing high-quality Riesling. Detailed information about the original harvesting and vinification methods is not available, but the Cabinet designation indicates a traditionally made, fine-quality German wine from carefully selected grapes. Given its age, the bottle should be handled as a historic collectible.

Food & Serving
If the bottle is in suitable condition, its mature sweetness, acidity and concentration would pair naturally with refined fish dishes, seafood, poultry, blue or washed-rind cheeses and fruit-based desserts. Serve slightly chilled, around 10–12°C, allowing the wine to open gradually in the glass. Decanting is best approached cautiously: standing the bottle upright before opening and carefully separating any sediment may be preferable to prolonged aeration, particularly given the wine’s exceptional age.

Producer
Kloster Eberbach is one of Germany’s most historic wine estates, founded in the Rheingau by Cistercian monks in 1136. The estate’s Steinberg vineyard has long been regarded as one of the region’s premier sites, and its wines played an important role in establishing the reputation of Rheingau Riesling. The 1909 bottle bears the historic designation Königliche Preußische Domänen-Kellerei, reflecting the estate’s connection with the Prussian state winery tradition.
