Historically the most famous Rieslings of the Rheingau have been the very sweet Beerenauslesen and Trockenbeerenauslesen styles. The grapes for this iconic Riesling were picked late in the season where the noble botrytis had its chance to impart its special aromatic components to the grapes. You should expect ripe tropical aromas with layers of honey and hints of spice. On the palate it should be decadently sweet with dried tropical fruit, honey, figs and marmalade. The high acidity should have balanced the sugars well, rendering a wine that is still fresh but with the special aromas derived from ageing.
