Description
The Anheuser family has been growing grapes in Bad Kreuznach since 1627. Today, brothers Rudolf and Paul continue the tradition with meticulous care. This Riesling Auslese Trocken comes from the Kreuznacher Kahlenberg vineyard in Germany's Nahe region, known for its slate and quartzite soils. The wine is characterized by intense fruit, balanced acidity, and a dry profile with nuanced earthy notes and a long complex finish. After 28 years in the Anheusers’ cellar, it was reconditioned and re-corked by the family, ensuring pristine aging provenance. This is a rare opportunity to experience a mature, dry German Auslese from a top producer at an extraordinary price. The Anheusers’ story is also unique: one brother went on to found a famous brewery in St. Louis, while the family in Germany focused on cultivating monopole vineyards like Pfingstweide and In den Felsen, planting exclusively to Riesling as early as the 19th century.
