Tasting Notes
Ethereal aromas of green apple, slate, lime blossom, and honey. Racy acidity with delicate sweetness and crystalline purity.
Our Review
Egon Müller's Scharzhofberger is the pinnacle of Mosel Riesling. At just 8% alcohol, this wine achieves an impossible balance of sweetness, acidity, and mineral intensity. Pure magic.
