Schwaab-Kiebel is an archetypal middle Mosel family wine estate, based in the village of Urzig. They have 5.5ha, including vines among the prized vineyards of Erdener Treppchen and of course in the Wurzgarten, which they continue to work by hand, vinifying their wines traditionally in old 1000 litre fuders.

Along with neighbours Merkelbach, the Schwaab-Kiebel family represents the values and qualities of a classic Mosel producer. However Horst Schwaab-Kiebel is scaling back the family’s activity, so these wines represent the last expression of a bygone era; a chance to savour the brilliance of traditionally made Mosel Riesling, with bottle age!
