Deinhard - Geisenheimer Kläuserweg Riesling Beerenauslese 1976 - 0,7 l

Deinhard’s 1976 Geisenheimer Kläuserweg Riesling Beerenauslese is a rare Rheingau sweet wine from one of Germany’s most celebrated historic vintages. Made from carefully selected grapes and matured over many decades, it offers both the elegance of mature Riesling and the appeal of a collectible bottle. At 0.7 litres, it is a distinctive choice for a special occasion or an established wine collection.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, the wine shows a luminous golden-yellow colour. Its mature bouquet is rich and expressive, with aromas of ripe peach, apricot and honey complemented by a gentle citrus character. On the palate, it is full-bodied and sweet, with refreshing acidity providing balance and preventing the wine from feeling heavy. The finish is long, rounded and pleasantly citrus-led. This is a mature 1976 wine and should be approached as a bottle to enjoy now rather than one to cellar for significant further development. As with all wines of this age, its condition and storage history will influence its exact expression.

Production
The wine comes from the Geisenheimer Kläuserweg vineyard in the Rheingau, a region renowned for producing distinguished Riesling with a natural balance between ripe fruit and lively acidity. According to the provided information, the grapes were selected and handled with great care by hand before the wine underwent a long period of maturation. Specific details regarding fermentation, botrytis development and cellar ageing are not available.

Food & Serving
Serve well chilled at approximately 8–10°C, allowing a few minutes in the glass for its mature aromas to open. It is a natural partner for fruit-based desserts, crème brûlée, pâtisserie and blue or mature cheeses, while its sweetness also makes it enjoyable as a refined aperitif. Decanting is generally not necessary, but carefully standing the bottle upright before opening and pouring gently can help preserve the wine’s clarity and delicate mature character.

Producer
Deinhard is a historic German wine producer with strong ties to the country’s tradition of Riesling and premium sparkling and sweet wines. This bottle reflects the Rheingau’s long-standing reputation for producing age-worthy Riesling, while its 1976 vintage and mature condition give it particular interest for collectors and enthusiasts of historic German wines.
