2005 Riesling Piesporter Goldtrofpchen Domherr Auslese: 122 g/l Sugar + 8,4 g/l Acidity - From Alte Reben in the Domherr plot (upper/lower parts of this plot. Upper were planted pre-war so all records were lost, locally known to be planted over 100yrs ago). Planted to blue-grey slate and clay. Hand-harvested and fermented with natural yeasts.
From Niklas Welter at Weingut Später-Veit: "The quantity of grapes for the 2005 Domherr Auslese was not enough to fill a Mosel barrel because botrytized grapes do not yield the same quantity as intact grapes. A smaller barrel was therefore used. We always bottle sweet wines before the summer. This is why the Auslese has only been stored on the lees for 7 months. We have produced 400 bottles of this wine."
