Max Ferd. Richter - Brauneberger Juffer-Sonnenuhr Riesling Trockenbeerenauslese 2015 - 0,375 l

Max Ferd. Richter’s 2015 Brauneberger Juffer-Sonnenuhr Riesling Trockenbeerenauslese is a rare and intensely concentrated sweet wine from one of the Mosel’s most celebrated vineyard sites. Made in a 375 ml bottle, it combines noble-rot richness with the vibrant acidity that gives great Mosel Riesling its remarkable balance and longevity.

Tasting Notes
The wine displays an intense golden colour. Its expressive bouquet reveals layers of ripe fruit, honey and delicate spice, with the concentrated character typical of fully botrytised Riesling grapes. On the palate, it is rich, sweet and full-bodied, yet lifted by lively acidity that prevents the sweetness from feeling heavy. The finish is long, focused and intensely flavoured. With its concentration and freshness, this Trockenbeerenauslese has excellent ageing potential and can develop beautifully over many years when properly stored.

Production
The Riesling grapes grow on the steep, sun-exposed slopes of the Brauneberger Juffer-Sonnenuhr in the Mosel, a site known for producing highly refined and age-worthy wines. For this Trockenbeerenauslese, the grapes were hand-harvested only after extensive botrytis, or noble rot, had concentrated their natural sugars and flavours. Following a gentle pressing, the must was slowly and carefully fermented before the wine matured for several months in stainless-steel tanks and was then bottled.

Food & Serving
Serve well chilled at approximately 8–10°C. Its sweetness and acidity make it a superb match for fruit-based desserts, crème brûlée, pâtisserie and blue or mature cheeses. It is also delightful on its own as an aperitif or as a luxurious after-dinner pour. Decanting is generally unnecessary, although carefully opening the bottle and allowing the wine a little time in the glass can reveal additional aromatic detail.

Producer
Max Ferd. Richter is a respected Mosel producer associated with Riesling from prestigious steep-slope vineyards. The estate’s wines are valued for their combination of site expression, precision and balance, particularly in the region’s finest sweet-wine categories.
