In the glass
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 estate's Scharzhofberg parcels, with ripe fruit held in piercing Saar acidity.
