2023 Riesling, Kabinett, Scharzhofberger, Egon Müller, Mosel, Germany

Few grapes capture both delicacy and intensity like Riesling. Celebrated for its perfumed aromatics and razor-sharp acidity, this noble variety is capable of a remarkable range: from bone-dry, mineral-driven whites to unctuous, long-lived sweet wines. Whether grown on the slate slopes of Germany, the volcanic hills of Alsace, or the sunlit vineyards of the New World, Riesling expresses a sense of place like no other grape.

The Rieslings from Egon Müller are widely recognised as amongst the very best in Germany today. He has just under eight hectares of vines in the world-famous Scharzhofberg vineyard, which includes three hectares of ungrafted Riesling vines from the 19th century.
