Reichsfreiherr von Ritter zu Groenesteyn - Rüdesheimer Hinterhaus Riesling Trockenbeerenauslese Cabinet 1920 - 0,7 l

A rare 1920 Riesling from Rüdesheimer Hinterhaus in the Rheingau, the Reichsfreiherr von Ritter zu Groenesteyn Trockenbeerenauslese Cabinet is a remarkable historical bottle for collectors and lovers of mature sweet wine. Almost a century of evolution has given this wine exceptional depth, while its 1920 vintage places it among the surviving witnesses to an important era in German wine history.

Tasting Notes
The wine presents a deep golden colour, indicative of its advanced age and concentrated style. Its complex bouquet brings together aromas of ripe and dried fruit, honey and delicate spice, with the mature nuances expected from a well-preserved Riesling of this age. On the palate, it is full-bodied and layered, balancing its richness with a pleasant acidity. The finish is long and lingering, leaving impressions of mature fruit, honey and spice. As a 1920 vintage, it should be approached as a fully mature wine; its condition and further ageing potential will depend greatly on storage history, fill level and the integrity of the bottle and cork.

Food & Serving
Serve well chilled, at approximately 10–12°C, allowing the wine to warm gradually in the glass as its aromas develop. It would be a fitting companion to foie gras, pâté, blue cheese, fruit-based desserts or simply a contemplative final glass. Decanting is not essential, but careful decanting may be considered to separate any sediment; with a wine of this age, gentle handling and immediate service are recommended.
