Beerenauslese

2006 Rheinhessen Riesling

The Georg Albrecht Schneider Beerenauslese from the Rheinhessen region is a splendid example of what a well-crafted Riesling can offer. This exquisite white wine showcases a luscious body that envelops the palate, creating a sensation of richness and depth. Its acidity is refreshingly bright, balancing the sweetness that is characteristic of a Beerenauslese. The fruit intensity is prominent, with notes of ripe stone fruits and honey that dance harmoniously together. With a mild dryness, this wine is indulgent without being cloying. The overall experience is elevated by its smooth texture and lingering finish, making it a delightful choice for dessert pairings or as a luxurious treat on its own.

Riesling is the most famous varietal in Germany, and is made in a range of styles, from dry and steely to sweet and peachy. The wines are classified according to the region as well as how much sugar is in each wine. Aside from the aromatic Riesling, you will also find subtle, refreshing whites made from local grapes like the floral Müller-Thurgau and Silvaner. Germany also produces some increasingly excellent red wine, mostly crisp and brightly fruity Pinot Noir (locally known as Spätburgunder).
