FEATURES
🏰The 2011 Egon Muller Scharzhofberger Riesling Auslese is a 【masterpiece of sweet Riesling from the legendary Egon Muller in the landmark 2011 vintage】, showcasing incredible complexity and longevity. The 2011 Mosel vintage for Egon Muller was characterized by a highly selective harvest, resulting in some of the estate's most iconic wines. The botrytis effect was exceptionally clean and pure, concentrating the wine's elements without obscuring them.
This Auslese delivers a gloriously complex bouquet of lime zest, tangerine, white cherries, honeycomb, kaleidoscopic minerality, white grape, candied lilacs, and a touch of petrol, with floral topnotes of orange and lime blossoms. On the palate, it's deep, full-bodied, pure, and electric, with a great core, stunning focus, and mineral drive, leading to a very long, snappy, and pure finish. Expect notes of heliotrope, lily, quince preserves, white peach preserves, distilled herbal essences, marzipan, brown spices, and an almost syrupy white peach with hints of white raisin, balanced by vibrant energy and refreshing lime.
🍴 This exquisite dessert wine is perfect with fruit tarts, crème brûlée, or blue cheeses like Roquefort. It also surprisingly complements spicy Asian cuisine, where its sweetness and acidity can balance the heat.
🥂 An ideal choice for celebratory desserts, special occasions, or a contemplative sipping experience. This wine is ready to drink now but can be aged for decades, continuing to gain complexity.
