Van Volxem Gottesfuß Riesling Trockenbeerenauslese 2018 - 0,375l

Van Volxem Gottesfuß Riesling Trockenbeerenauslese 2018 is a rare, luxurious Mosel sweet wine crafted from hand-harvested Riesling grown on the steep slopes of the Gottesfuß vineyard. Made only from fully botrytized berries, it captures the precision, intensity, and elegance that have made Van Volxem one of Germany’s most respected producers.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, this Trockenbeerenauslese shows a rich, luminous golden color that hints at its concentration and sweetness. The nose is deeply expressive, with layers of exotic fruit, honey, and warming spice, all carried by a delicate freshness that keeps the wine vibrant. The palate is full-bodied and sumptuous, balancing opulent natural sweetness with lively Riesling acidity. Notes of ripe stone fruit, dried tropical fruit, and honeyed complexity unfold into a long finish marked by subtle mineral tension. It has excellent aging potential and should continue to gain depth and nuance over many years.

Production
The Gottesfuß vineyard in the Mosel-Saar-Ruwer region is known for its steep, slate-influenced slopes and cool climate, which give Riesling its signature finesse and minerality. The grapes are harvested by hand only once botrytis has fully concentrated the berries, then gently pressed and slowly fermented to preserve purity, freshness, and aromatic detail.

Food & Serving
This wine is a natural match for fruit-based desserts, blue cheese, foie gras, or richly textured pâtés, and it also works beautifully as a contemplative aperitif. Serve lightly chilled at around 8–10°C, and decanting is generally not necessary, though a brief airing can help it open up in the glass.

Producer
Van Volxem is a leading estate in the Saar subregion of the Mosel, widely admired for its focus on dry and noble-sweet Rieslings from historic vineyard sites. The winery has helped redefine the region’s reputation through meticulous vineyard work, low-intervention winemaking, and a strong commitment to expressing terroir. Its wines are consistently regarded among Germany’s most distinctive and collectible Rieslings.
