Cabinet

German and Austrian wine quality level that goes back to the earlier term Cabinet for a special wine cellar with special grapes in the Eberbach monastery in the Rheingau. According to German wine law, Kabinett is the lowest level of Prädikat wine. In Austria, on the other hand, Kabinett does not count as a Prädikat wine level, but classifies a superior quality wine. See also in detail under Quality System and Grand Cru.

Further information

For the production of alcoholic beverages, see Champagne (sparkling wines), distillation (distillates), speciality wines, spirits (types), winemaking (wines and wine types) and wine law (wine law issues).
