Riesling Beerenauslese 0,375 l 2015 - Markus Pfaffmann

The Riesling Beerenauslese from Pfaffmann from the vineyard Walsheimer Silberberg shows a beautiful golden yellow colour in the glass. In the nose this sweet wine from the Palatinate reveals an extremely concentrated bouquet, which is carried by ethereal notes of chamomile and eucalyptus, as well as full fruity nuances of apricot, ripe peach as well as candied ginger and orange zest.

On the palate, this Beerenauslese from the Walsheimer Silberberg convinces with a great interplay of enormously densely concentrated, clear fruit sweetness and firm, lemony acidity. A little honey as well as tart hints are to be tasted. An excellently balanced, wonderfully fresh drop with pressure and density, which Pfaffmann wrongly predicts will mature for only 15 years. We can easily see this wine at 25 years.

Vinification of the Riesling Beerenauslese from Pfaffmann

All noble sweet Rieslings from Pfaffmann have their origin in the single vineyard Walsheimer Silberberg, which surrounds the winery directly. Here the vines are rooted in sandy loess loam with limestone. Together with as long and warm late summer days as possible, the location guarantees sweet, noble rotten berries, which are individually selected by hand during the harvest. The Beerenauslese, harvested in late autumn, often brings an impressive 145° Öchsle and more to the must scale.

Food recommendation for the Riesling Beerenauslese by Markus Pfaffmann
