1976 | Egon Muller | Scharzhofberger Riesling Trockenbeerenauslese

1976 was an incredible vintage in the Mosel-Saar-Ruwer with perfect ripening conditions and an abundance of noble rot for the later harvested BA and TBA Rieslings. This particular wine attained legendary status when acclaimed wine expert Michael Broadbent bestowed it with a six star rating rather than his usual maximum of five.
