Description

A half bottle of Riesling from Germany's Rheingau region, from Geisenheim. This was bottled for the respected viticultural research institute from the same town.

Please note, the vintage is not visible.

Eiswein is produced from grapes which have been left to concentrate on the vines prior to freezing when temperatures drop to below minus seven degrees centigrade. The resulting grape must has additional concentration, and the resulting wine is known for its particularly pure flavour profile, which is largely unaffected by Botryris cinerea, or 'noble rot' found in many other classic late harvest wine styles.

This lot comes from the cellar of our Whisky Exchange colleague; author, wine educator and fortified wine authority, the late Godfrey Spence.

Condition

Please see images for fill level and label condition. Note damage to the label. The vintage is not visible.

The Whisky.Auction team has inspected this lot and found it to be suitable for sale. However, please note the absence of a condition statement does not imply that this lot is in perfect condition or free from wear and tear, imperfections or the effects of ageing. We cannot guarantee that the contents of this bottle will be free from the effects of age, cork taint, oxidation or other faults. Older bottles often contain sediment. Wines are more fragile than spirits and older wines may be listed, at our discretion, for their historical interest rather than their drinkability. We can in no way guarantee that they are still within their plateau of maturity or to the buyer’s taste.

This bottle does not appear to be leaking. While we take every care to pack bottles securely we cannot guarantee that old corks and closures will not leak in transit.
