Trockenbeerenauslese 2015

It is exclusively made from grapes which have shrivelled and dried out like raisins due to the affection of noble rot. This leads to a sugar content of almost 40 % and it requires expert skills of a winemaker to achieve and maintain harmony between the aroma composing elements. Establishing this well-ballanced relation is a craft only mastered by winemakers with a comprehensive experience in this special field.
