1992 Durkheimer Nonnengarten WeiBburgunder Beernauslese 375ml

Durkheimer Nonnengarten Weißburgunder Beerenauslese is one of those Pfalz sweet wines that feels almost sculpted — rich, honeyed, and exotic, yet lifted by the natural freshness of Pinot Blanc. It’s a style you can describe with real precision, because Beerenauslese always brings that beautiful interplay of botrytis, purity, and acidity.

Appearance - Glowing deep gold with amber reflections. Viscous, slow‑moving legs that signal high natural sweetness and concentration.

Nose - Ripe apricot, peach compote, and baked apple. Honeycomb and acacia blossom. Candied citrus peel (orange, lemon)Botrytis notes: saffron, dried pineapple, light caramelised sugarA subtle nuttiness (hazelnut skin) adding depth

Palate - Lusciously sweet but beautifully balanced by Pinot Blanc’s natural acidity. Layers of apricot jam, quince paste, and golden raisin. Honey, citrus curd, and a touch of vanilla. Botrytis richness: marmalade, dried tropical fruit, gentle spice. Silky texture with a clean, refreshing lift

Finish - Long, elegant, and honey‑soaked. Lingering apricot, citrus zest, and a delicate floral sweetness. A final note of minerality that keeps it from feeling heavy
