What is the sequence of QmP levels from driest to sweetest?

• A. Kabinett, Spatlese, Auslese, Beerenauslese, Eiswein, Trockenbeerenauslese
• B. Kabinett, Auslese, Spatlese, Beerenauslese, Eiswein, Trockenbeerenauslese
• C. Kabinett, Spatlese, Auslese, Beerenauslese, Eiswein, Trockenbeerenauslese
• D. Kabinett, Spatlese, Beerenauslese, Auslese, Eiswein, Trockenbeerenauslese

Answer: (C)

In this topic, the level names reflect how ripe the grapes were when harvested, which largely predicts how much sugar is left for the wine after fermentation. Kabinett comes from less ripe grapes, so it’s generally the driest. As harvest ripens, Spätlese and then Auslese wines gain more concentrated sugars and richer flavors, making them progressively sweeter. Beerenauslese uses individually selected berries and is very sweet, and Trockenbeerenauslese comes from grapes that have desiccated, yielding an intensely sweet, concentrated wine. Ice wine (Eiswein) is made from frozen grapes, which concentrates sugars and acidity; its sweetness level is typically between Beerenauslese and Trockenbeerenauslese. Putting that together, the driest to sweetest sequence is Kabinett, Spätlese, Auslese, Beerenauslese, Eiswein, Trockenbeerenauslese.
