Desire Auslese Riesling Trocken (75cl)

Desire Auslese Riesling Trocken is a dry German Riesling made from hand-picked, late-harvest grapes. The Auslese Trocken designation means grapes harvested at Auslese ripeness are fermented fully dry. Auslese-level ripeness requires particularly ripe bunches, typically achieved only in the best vintage years. Fermenting these sugar-concentrated grapes fully dry demands careful yeast management and often results in higher alcohol than standard German Riesling. Aromas include ripe apricot, peach, honeyed richness, floral undertones, minerality and citrus peel. The palate is full-bodied with yellow plum, baked apple and high natural acidity, finishing long and mineral-driven with citrus zest and stone fruit.
