Trockenbeerenauslese is a classification of wines produced from sweet shrivelled Botrytised grapes. They are exceptionally concentrated, sweet and long-lived, but are also particularly rare. Egon Müller is one of the greatest producers of sweet Riesling and this is a marvellously complex mature wine from a sensational Mosel vintage.
