Description
Max Ferd. Richter Mülheimer Helenenkloster Eiswein Fass 103 2016 is a rare Mosel ice wine that captures both precision and decadence in the glass. Hand-harvested in freezing conditions and matured in the distinctive ‘Fass 103’ oak cask, it offers the kind of concentration and elegance that has made German Eiswein a benchmark style for generations.
Tasting Notes
In the glass, it shows a luminous golden colour, hinting at its richness before the first sip. The nose is intensely expressive, unfolding with ripe peach, apricot, and honey, alongside a refined oak nuance from cask aging.
On the palate, it is lush and full-bodied, with a beautifully judged sweetness balanced by Mosel freshness and vibrant acidity. The finish is long, polished, and layered, suggesting excellent aging potential for those who enjoy the development of honeyed, nutty complexity over time.
Production
Produced in the Mülheimer Helenenkloster site in the Mosel, this Eiswein reflects the cool-climate terroir that makes the region so prized for aromatic, high-acid wines. The grapes were harvested by hand at sub-zero temperatures, allowing the water in the berries to freeze while the sugars, acidity, and flavour compounds remained concentrated.
After pressing, the wine was aged in oak cask No. 103, which adds a subtle frame and extra depth without overpowering the purity of the fruit. The result is a finely balanced dessert wine with both intensity and finesse.
Food & Serving
Best enjoyed lightly chilled as an aperitif or with refined desserts such as crème brûlée, cheesecake, fruit salad, or tarte tatin. It also pairs well with blue cheese or delicate pâtisserie if you prefer a more savoury contrast. Serve at around 8–10°C, and decanting is not necessary.
