Egon Müller, whose Rieslings ate unanimously considered some of the best in the world today, sits rightly in our category of ‘wine legends’. He owns just under 8 hectares of vines in the world-famous Scharzhofberg vineyard, including 3 hectares of ungrafted Riesling vines from the 19th century.
The combination of the fantastic Scharzhofberger terroir and Egon’s genius as a winemaker, result in wines of incredible minerality, fruit expressiveness and vibrant acidity, all in perfect balance. All Egon Müller’s wines have proven, superb ageing potential. Müller’s yield in 2013 was tiny that gave increased concentration and intensity in this superb vintage.
The already 9-year-old 2013 Scharzhofberger Spatlese combines delicious, juicy fruit with a delicate sweetness, a stern mineral backbone and an incredible, effortless elegance. The precise acidity, precision and tension make this an incredible wine that we’re very lucky to have a few bottles of.
