Produced from Riesling and presented at 0.7 l, it is a rare historical bottle for collectors and enthusiasts of mature German wine.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe wine is described as showing a deep golden colour, with the intensity and concentration expected from a mature Trockenbeerenauslese. Its aromatic profile is rich and expressive, revealing layers of honey, ripe peach, apricot and citrus, with the long bottle age likely adding further complexity.\n\nOn the palate, it is full-bodied and opulent, balancing pronounced sweetness with a refreshing thread of acidity. The finish is complex and persistent, making this a fascinating bottle to explore slowly. Given its age, the wine’s condition and precise evolution will depend greatly on storage and provenance; it is best approached as a mature historical wine rather than judged against a young vintage.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduction\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRauenthaler Gehrn is a distinguished vineyard site in the Rheingau, a region particularly well suited to Riesling thanks to its favourable climate and river-influenced vineyards. The Trockenbeerenauslese designation indicates an exceptionally concentrated sweet wine traditionally made from individually selected, shrivelled grapes, often affected by noble rot. Specific harvesting and vinification details for this 1920 bottling are not available, but the style is associated with very low yields, intense fruit concentration and careful fermentation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFood \u0026amp; Serving\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eServe lightly chilled, around 10–12°C, allowing the wine’s mature aromas and sweetness to unfold in the glass. It would pair beautifully with foie gras, blue cheese, fruit-based desserts, crème brûlée or apricot and peach pastries. Decanting is not essential, but a careful standing period before opening and gentle decanting may help separate any sediment; for a wine of this age, taste a small amount first and avoid prolonged exposure to air if it appears delicate.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProducer\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAnheuser \u0026amp; Fehrs is identified on the bottle as the producer, alongside the Staatsweingut designation. Detailed historical information about the estate and its role in the Rheingau is not available from the supplied information, but the 1920 Rauenthaler Gehrn bottling is significant as a rare example of early twentieth-century German Riesling from one of the region’s respected vineyard areas.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Anheuser \u0026 Fehrs (Staatsweingut)","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54617113592145,"sku":"GWCOM-AR000033","price":3850.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0874\/0614\/9969\/files\/AR000033.png?v=1787089067","url":"https:\/\/bottlehero.com\/products\/anheuser-fehrs-staatsweingut-rauenthaler-gehrn-riesling-trockenbeerenauslese-1920-07-l","provider":"Bottle Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
