This unique dessert wine, known as “trockenbeerenauslese” in Germany, is made exclusively from grapes touched with Botrytis, a deliberately cultivated fungus also known as “noble rot.” Noble rot sucks almost all of the water out of the grapes, leaving intensely concentrated flavors and sugars. Small bunches are laboriously picked by hand to ensure only the best grapes are used to make this small batch of syrupy goodness.
Varietals: 100% Riesling
Nose: Intense nose filled with honeyed citrus and lychee
Palate: Syrupy mouthfeel filled with notes of clover honey and apricot
Alcohol: 9.0%
Appellation: Finger Lakes, New York
About 30 years ago, Hermann Wiemer planted Riesling along the shores of Seneca Lake. Today, the winery is in the hands of his long-time apprentice, Fred Merwarth, who continues under Wiemer’s guidance and has led the winery to three consecutive years as a Wine & Spirits Top 100 Winery.
When necessary, your wine will be shipped in a temperature-controlled, refrigerated truck to a carrier hub close to you. You will receive tracking information once your wine leaves the carrier hub.
