2017 Technical Specifications
Classification Auslese Goldkapsel
Region Mosel
Production Details Katharina Prüm describes Goldkapsel wines as limited, small-production lots selected from the vintage's best Auslese, using more strongly selected grapes with more concentrated juice. She says they are usually affected by some botrytis and can age markedly longer than regular Auslese; because 'usually' does not establish this individual wine's botrytis status, no has_botrytis claim is made for 2017.
Tasting Notes Open and exotic aromas of ginger, white flowers and lavender, followed by yellow peach, cherries, lime marmalade and grapefruit; concentrated, powerful, juicy, structured, energetic and balanced
Food Pairing Fruit-based desserts, preferably with custard; cheese and savory dishes including game and steak
