Description
Max Ferd. Richter’s 2019 Wehlener Sonnenuhr Riesling Trockenbeerenauslese is an exceptionally rare and concentrated sweet wine from one of the Mosel’s most celebrated vineyards. Made from individually selected, botrytised Riesling grapes, it combines remarkable richness with the vibrant acidity that gives the finest Mosel dessert wines their balance and longevity.
Tasting Notes
Brilliant golden in colour, this Trockenbeerenauslese opens with an intense, complex bouquet of ripe stone fruit, candied citrus, honey and delicate spice, with the characteristic noble sweetness of botrytised grapes. The palate is exceptionally concentrated and sweet, yet lifted by refreshing acidity. Layers of mature fruit and honey lead to a long, harmonious finish. With its concentration and balance, the wine has excellent ageing potential and can develop beautifully for many decades when stored correctly.
Production
The grapes come from the steep, south-facing slopes of Wehlener Sonnenuhr, a prestigious Mosel site known for its slate-rich soils, excellent sun exposure and finely detailed Rieslings. For a Trockenbeerenauslese, only highly concentrated, noble-rot-affected berries are selected, typically through several careful passes in the vineyard. The grapes are gently pressed and fermented slowly to preserve their aromatic intensity, natural sweetness and defining Mosel freshness.
Food & Serving
Serve well chilled at approximately 8–10°C. This luxurious Riesling is a natural partner for elegant desserts featuring fruit, caramel or vanilla, but it is equally compelling with a mature cheese selection, blue cheese or foie gras. Decanting is not essential, although a short period in a glass or small decanter can help reveal the wine’s layered aromas, particularly when young.
Producer
