Riesling Trockenbeerenauslese 1989


Additional Information

“100 points. It’s not possible to make a greater wine. Pure nectar. Superbly balanced and one of the most concentrated wines we have ever tasted. Deep gold; has an incredible concentration of spice, raisin, vanilla and slight butterscotch aromas; full bodied, thicker and sweeter than pure honey, with butterscotch, spice, honey and orange peel flavors. Wonderfully balanced, with a long finish. Might age for centuries.”

    "Known for its dessert-style Rieslings, Egon Müller, now run by the fourth-generation proprietor of the same name, took advantage of the warm weather and the incidence of botrytis in 1989 to craft a perfect TBA. Superbly balanced, with great concentration, Mullers TBA conjures aromas and flavors of spice, raisin, orange peel and butterscotch. Tasting note: 100 points. It's not possible to make a greater wine. Pure nectar. Superbly balanced and one of the most concentrated wines we have ever tasted. Deep gold; has an incredible concentration of spice, raisin, vanilla and slight butterscotch aromas; full bodied, thicker and sweeter than pure honey, with butterscotch, spice, honey and orange peel flavors.
