Late picked for sweetness, the quality of fruit which merits bottling as a Spätlese, must show the capacity for extended age and development. Richly sweet when enjoyed as an early wine, Spätlese evolve into a cornucopia of fruit flavours and bottle aged characters. The wines of Scharzhofberger originate from a unique mesoclime between Wiltingen and Oberemmel, separated from the greater Saar district by a small tributary which delineates the elite little precinct. A few hectares of vine, yield Riesling of extraordinary richness, regal splendour and intense, dulcet charm.
