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
Bright, sparkling light amber. On the nose, an intense bouquet of yellow peach, ripe pineapple, and caramel, with a hint of black tea.
On the palate, it is remarkably vibrant, with pure, clean fruit sweetness balanced by a juicy, lively acidity.
Long, lingering finish with notes of orange blossom and honey.
An exceptionally layered wine, celebrated for its wonderful balance between crisp freshness and delicate 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.
