Made from individually selected, intensely ripe Riesling berries, it combines remarkable sweetness with the freshness that allows great German noble-sweet wines to mature for decades.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe wine displays a deep golden hue, reflecting its age and concentration. Its bouquet is richly perfumed, with notes of honey, ripe apricot, peach and dried fruit.\n\nOn the palate, it is full-bodied and lusciously sweet, yet balanced by refreshing acidity. Flavours of candied and dried fruit, honey and ripe stone fruit persist through a long, lingering finish. As a 1997 Trockenbeerenauslese, it is already mature but should continue to develop in a well-kept cellar, with its longevity depending on storage conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduction\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe grapes were harvested by hand and carefully selected to retain only the ripest and most concentrated berries. Produced in Germany’s Rheingau region from Riesling, this style of Trockenbeerenauslese represents one of the highest levels of natural grape sweetness in the German classification system. The region’s cool climate and river-influenced vineyards help preserve the acidity essential for balance and long ageing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFood \u0026amp; Serving\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eServe lightly chilled at approximately 8–10°C. This wine is a natural partner for fruit-based desserts, apricot tart, crème brûlée, blue cheese and foie gras, while its complexity also makes it rewarding as an aperitif. Decanting is generally not necessary, although carefully pouring it into a small carafe can help reveal its aromas if the wine appears initially reserved. The 375 ml format is particularly well suited to intimate celebrations or gifting.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProducer\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePeter Jakob Kühn is a respected Rheingau estate known for expressive Riesling wines that reflect the character of their vineyards and the region’s tradition of producing long-lived, noble-sweet wines.
