Dr Loosen Riesling Beerenauslese 375ml Austria Deep crimson with violet huesBeerenauslese (berry select) is a rich, honeyed dessert wine made from grapes that have been shriveled by botrytis, the noble rot. These extremely concentrated, mouldy grapes are painstakingly separated from the unaffected fruit and vinified to make one of Germanys most prized vinous treasures. The legal minimum for BA must weight is 110 Oechsle, but at Dr. Loosen it usually starts with a minimum of 120 Oechsle.
