Königl. preuss. Domänen-Kellerei (Kloster Eberbach) - Serriger Vogelsang Riesling feine Auslese 1920 - 0,7 l

The 1920 Serriger Vogelsang Riesling feine Auslese from the Königl. preuss. Domänen-Kellerei at Kloster Eberbach is a remarkable historical bottle from one of Germany’s great wine-producing traditions. Made from selected, fully ripe grapes in the exceptional 1920 vintage, it offers a rare opportunity to experience a century-old Mosel-Saar-Ruwer Riesling with both provenance and remarkable age.

Tasting Notes
The wine is described as having a bright yellow appearance, while its bouquet combines refined notes of citrus, honey and flowers. On the palate, it is balanced and elegant, with refreshing acidity supported by a gentle sweetness and a long, persistent finish. At more than a century old, this is a collector’s wine whose condition and expression will depend greatly on storage history, ullage and closure. It is best approached as a historic Riesling intended for contemplative tasting rather than judged against the profile of a young wine.

Production
Produced in the Serriger Vogelsang vineyard in the Mosel-Saar-Ruwer region, this wine reflects the classic combination of Riesling, cool-climate conditions and slate-influenced river-valley terroir associated with the area. As a 1920 bottling, detailed vineyard and cellar records for the individual wine may not be available; the designation “feine Auslese” indicates a selection of particularly ripe grapes, while the historical vinification methods would have followed the practices of the period.

Food & Serving
Its balanced acidity, subtle sweetness and mature character make it a natural partner for delicate fish dishes, poultry and mildly flavoured cheeses. Serve slightly chilled, around 10–12°C, allowing the wine to open gradually in the glass. Because of its age, decanting should be approached carefully: stand the bottle upright before opening and, if necessary, decant gently to remove sediment, while avoiding prolonged aeration.

Producer
Kloster Eberbach is one of Germany’s most historically important wine estates, with roots reaching back to its Cistercian foundation in the Rheingau in the 12th century. The Königl. preuss. Domänen-Kellerei designation reflects the period when the estate was administered as a Prussian state domain. Its long association with quality Riesling and distinguished German wine history makes this 1920 Serriger Vogelsang bottling especially significant for collectors and enthusiasts of mature wines.
