Cabinet

German and Austrian wine quality level, which goes back to the formerly used designation Cabinet for a special wine cellar with special crescences in the Eberbach Monastery in the Rheingau. According to the wine law in Germany, Cabinet is the lowest level of predicate wine. In Austria, however, Kabinett does not count as a Prädikat wine level according to wine law, but classifies an upscale quality wine. See also in detail under Quality System and Grand Cru.

Complete lists of the numerous vinification measures and cellar techniques, as well as the types of wine, sparkling wine and distillate regulated by wine law are included under the keyword vinification. Comprehensive information on wine law can be found under the keyword wine law.
