✨ Tekniske specifikationer
Deep in the Saar valley, a tributary of the Mosel, lies the legendary Scharzhofberg vineyard, a place of viticultural pilgrimage. Here, the Egon Müller estate crafts what are widely considered the world's finest Rieslings. The estate's history is steeped in lore, tracing back to medieval monks before being acquired by Jean-Jacques Koch during the French Revolution; his descendants, the Müller family, have preserved this legacy since 1797. The Scharzhofberg vineyard itself is a steep, south-facing amphitheater of grey and red Devonian slate, possessing a cool microclimate that allows grapes to ripen slowly while retaining electric acidity. The 'Auslese Nr. 6' is a rare, highly coveted auction bottling, crafted only in exceptional vintages from meticulously hand-selected, botrytis-affected grapes. Fermented in traditional old oak fuders using native yeasts, this 100% Riesling is a masterclass in tension, balancing luscious, honeyed sweetness with a crystalline, saline minerality that is uniquely Scharzhofberg.
🍾 Om vinhuset / producenten
Historien bag Weingut Egon Müller-Scharzhof strækker sig tilbage til 1797, hvor Jean-Jacques Koch erhvervede den historiske ejendom i Wiltingen, beliggende i Saar-dalen i Tysklands berømte Mosel-region. Vingården er gået i arv gennem generationer og har i dag opnået verdensry under ledelse af Egon Müller IV. Han værner kompromisløst om de stolte traditioner med fokus på minutiøst markarbejde, sen høst og minimal indgriben i vinkælderen. Juvelen i kronen er husets parceller på den legendariske Scharzhofberg-mark, hvor ældgamle, rodægte Riesling-vinstokke fra før vinlusens tid klamrer sig til de stejle skråninger af skifer. Egon Müller hyldes på verdensplan for at skabe nogle af klodens absolut reneste, mest lagringsværdige og aristokratiske søde Riesling-vine – fra udsøgte Spätlese- og Auslese-aftapninger til mytiske, rekordbrydende Trockenbeerenauslese-sjældenheder.
