What it pairs with

  • Seared foie gras
    Botrytis sweetness and cutting acidity balance the rich liver without cloying.
  • Sichuan mapo tofu
    The wine's sweetness and high acidity buffer the numbing chilli oil and lift the fermented-bean savour.
  • Glazed duck breast
    Concentrated fruit and racy acidity match the rich poultry.

History

A concentrated fruity-style Spatlese from the Erdener Treppchen, with ripe fruit and piercing acidity in the traditional style.
