2003 Technical Specifications

Classification Trockenbeerenauslese
Region Nahe
Botrytis Affected Yes

September rain initiated limited noble rot that developed into raisined fruit during dry autumn weather, permitting Trockenbeerenauslese selection. The producer reports higher must weights and lower acidity values than in 2001 and 2002, without publishing exact finished-wine measurements.
