Gillot & Söhne - Oppenheimer Reisekahr Terrasse Riesling Trockenbeerenauslese 1934 - 0,7 l

Gillot & Söhne’s 1934 Oppenheimer Reisekahr Terrasse Riesling Trockenbeerenauslese is a rare and historic German sweet wine from Rheinhessen. Produced from exceptionally concentrated grapes, this venerable vintage offers collectors the opportunity to experience a beautifully mature example of one of Germany’s most prestigious Riesling styles.

Tasting Notes
The wine is described as golden in colour, with the depth and concentration expected from a mature Trockenbeerenauslese. Its bouquet is intensely aromatic, combining ripe fruit with honeyed notes and warming spice. On the palate, it is full-bodied and sweet, supported by a balancing line of acidity that prevents the richness from becoming heavy. The finish is long, rounded and persistent. At more than nine decades old, its condition will depend greatly on storage and bottle provenance; it is best approached as a mature collector’s wine rather than judged solely on further ageing potential.

Production
Trockenbeerenauslese is among Germany’s most concentrated Prädikatswein styles, traditionally made from individually selected, shrivelled grapes with intense sugar and flavour concentration, often influenced by noble rot. The wine comes from Oppenheim in Rheinhessen, a region known for its limestone-rich terraces and long tradition of Riesling production. Specific details regarding the vineyard selection, harvest method and vinification of this 1934 bottling are not available.

Food & Serving
Serve well chilled at approximately 8–10°C. Its sweetness and acidity make it a natural partner for foie gras, blue cheeses, fruit-based desserts and elegant pastries, while it can also be enjoyed on its own as a contemplative after-dinner wine. Decanting is not usually essential for an old sweet wine, but careful standing and gentle pouring may help separate any sediment; open shortly before serving and handle the bottle with care.
