Carl Frz. Engelmann - Hallgartener Deutelsberg Riesling Beerenauslese 1937 - 0,7 l

A remarkable bottle from the historic 1937 vintage, the Carl Frz. Engelmann Hallgartener Deutelsberg Riesling Beerenauslese reflects the exceptional longevity of fine Rheingau Riesling. Produced from carefully selected grapes, this rare dessert wine combines venerable age with the concentrated sweetness and aromatic complexity associated with Beerenauslese.

Tasting Notes
The wine presents a golden hue, showing the depth and maturity expected from a bottle of its age. Its bouquet is complex and expressive, with aromas of ripe fruit, honey and subtle spice. On the palate, it is full-bodied and richly textured, balancing pronounced sweetness with mature fruit character and a persistent finish. As a nearly nine-decade-old wine, its condition and evolution will naturally depend on storage and bottle provenance; when well preserved, it offers a fascinating glimpse into the character of historic Rheingau Riesling.

Production
Sourced from the Hallgartener Deutelsberg vineyard in Germany’s Rheingau, this Beerenauslese was made from the finest grapes of the 1937 vintage. The Beerenauslese designation indicates a naturally concentrated, sweet style produced from individually selected, exceptionally ripe berries. Specific details regarding harvesting, botrytis development and vinification are not available.

Food & Serving
Enjoy this rare Riesling Beerenauslese lightly chilled, at approximately 8–10°C, either as an aperitif or alongside desserts such as fruit tart, crème brûlée, honeyed pastries or blue cheese. Its sweetness and concentration can also complement foie gras and other rich savoury dishes. Decanting is not essential, but a gentle decant may help separate any sediment and allow the wine to open; handle the bottle carefully due to its age.
