Its bouquet is intense and inviting, combining aromas of ripe orchard fruit with honeyed nuances and a subtle mineral character.\n\nOn the palate, it is full-bodied and complex, balancing its residual sweetness with refreshing acidity. The finish is long, poised and revitalising, with the mature fruit and mineral notes lingering attractively. As a wine from 1964, it should be approached as a fully mature bottle; its condition and remaining vitality will depend greatly on storage history and ullage.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduction\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis Riesling Auslese was produced from grapes grown in the Eltviller Langenstück vineyard in the Rheingau, a region renowned for its distinctive Rieslings and wines with excellent ageing potential.

Its sweetness and acidity make it a natural partner for fruit-based desserts, crème brûlée and other delicately sweet dishes, while its complexity also suits blue cheese or mature soft cheeses. It can equally be enjoyed on its own as an aperitif. Decanting is not generally necessary for an aged Riesling, although carefully standing the bottle upright before opening and pouring slowly can help retain any sediment.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProducer\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSchloss Eltz is associated with the historic Rheingau wine tradition, and this bottle reflects the region’s long-standing reputation for ageworthy Riesling.
