Made from individually selected, botrytis-affected grapes, it combines luxurious sweetness with the vibrant acidity that is the hallmark of great Mosel Riesling.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe wine shows a deep golden hue, potentially developing amber highlights with age. Its mature bouquet is rich and expressive, revealing honey, dried apricot, peach and citrus alongside delicate nuances of caramel, candied fruit and Mosel minerality. On the palate, it is opulent and sweet, yet remarkably energetic, with bright acidity providing balance and lift. The finish is long, persistent and finely mineral. As a mature 1976 Trockenbeerenauslese, it is ready to enjoy now; its further potential will depend on storage conditions and fill level.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduction\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eZeltinger Sonnenuhr is one of the renowned vineyard sites of the Mosel, where steep slopes and mineral-rich soils help Riesling retain its characteristic freshness. For a Trockenbeerenauslese, only the ripest grapes affected by noble rot—Botrytis cinerea—are selected, often berry by berry. This natural concentration intensifies the grape sugars, acidity and aromatic complexity, creating a wine capable of decades of development while preserving the elegant structure of Mosel Riesling.\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 to unfold in the glass. It is a beautiful aperitif and pairs especially well with crème brûlée, cheesecake, fruit-based desserts and dark chocolate, while its acidity also makes it a compelling match for blue cheese or foie gras. Decanting is not essential, but carefully standing the bottle upright before opening and pouring gently can help separate any sediment; a short period of aeration in the glass is recommended.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProducer\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eClemens Freiherr von Schorlemer is associated with Schloss Lieser, a historic Mosel estate situated near the village of Lieser.
