Cellar
Trockenbeerenauslese – Aromatische Tiefe durch lange Reife
The long ripening period on the vine, lasting deep into winter, plays a defining role in shaping the wine’s character. The presence of botrytis (65%), partly originating from high-altitude vineyards at 700 meters above sea level, lends the wine its profound aromatic depth. Vinification: fermentation on the skins and gentle pressing, followed by fermentation in barrique and extended aging on fine lees in a cool cellar.

Wine Description
Light, sparkling amber, very intense scent of yellow and white peaches, ripe pineapple, apricots, lychee and other exotic fruits with a hint of black tea. Extremely invigorating on the palate, with pure fruit sweetness, balanced by a juicy, stimulating acidity. Long-lasting aftertaste. An extraordinarily complex wine with its wonderful balance between crisp freshness and fine sweetness.
Food Pairing
Goes well with desserts, e.g. apricot or apple strudel, chocolate cake/mousse, crème brûlée and spicy cheese, or a vegan American apple pie with cinnamon roll dough, cranberries and coconut.
Winery
For over 30 years, the Kränzelhof in Tscherms has been producing wine on-site and also offers a garden to visit, featuring rotating art exhibitions and culinary experiences at the Miil and Essbar restaurants.
