Vereinigte Hospitien (Sanctus Jacobus) - Serriger Schloss Saarfelser Schlossberg Riesling Beerenauslese Goldkapsel 1976 - 0,7 l

A rare 1976 Riesling Beerenauslese from Vereinigte Hospitien, this Serriger Schloss Saarfelser Schlossberg bottling captures the remarkable longevity and elegance of the Saar. Presented with a distinctive gold capsule, it is a mature, low-alcohol dessert wine suited to collectors, special occasions and thoughtful gifting.

Tasting Notes
Deep golden in appearance, with the colour and concentration expected from a mature Beerenauslese. Its aromatic profile is shaped by age, offering layers of ripe fruit, honey and delicate preserved-fruit nuances, while the palate is rich yet graceful, with a sweet, concentrated texture and lingering finish. At almost five decades old, this is a fully mature wine and should be enjoyed for its complexity rather than cellared indefinitely. As with all wines of this age, condition and storage history will influence the precise expression in the glass.

Production
The grapes were carefully harvested by hand from the prized Saarfelser Schlossberg vineyard and gently processed before extended maturation. Made from Riesling and bottled as a Beerenauslese, the wine reflects the concentration associated with this distinguished style; the gold capsule marks it as a particularly special bottling. Further details regarding soil composition and vinification are not available.

Food & Serving
Serve well chilled at approximately 8–10°C, allowing a little time in the glass for its mature aromas to unfold. It is an elegant partner for fruit-based desserts, crème brûlée, pâtisserie and mild blue or washed-rind cheeses. Decanting is not essential, but careful opening and a short period of aeration may help reveal its full aromatic complexity; avoid excessive exposure to air due to the wine’s age.

Producer
Vereinigte Hospitien is a historic wine producer associated with Trier and the Mosel-Saar-Ruwer region, where Riesling has long been central to the local wine culture. The Sanctus Jacobus designation and the estate’s Saar bottlings reflect this traditional regional heritage. This 1976 Beerenauslese is a notable example of the producer’s ability to preserve an exceptional, age-worthy sweet wine from the Saar.
