NO RESERVE PRICE - for a true Mosel masterpiece: A trio of Reinhold Haart 2009 Goldtropchen Riesling Auselse 3 x 375 ml. Presented for auction is a magnificent rarity from the heart of Germany's Mosel region: a pristine trio of the 2009 Goldtropchen Riesling Auselse from the esteemed Weingut Reinhold Haart. This is a singular opportunity to acquire a collection of a true legend, a wine of extraordinary concentration, purity, and age-worthiness. The Producer: Weingut Reinhold Haart The Haart family boasts a winemaking legacy that dates back to 1337, making them one of the oldest winegrowing families in the entire Mosel region. Their estate is rooted in Piesport, where they meticulously cultivate Riesling on the steep, slate-rich slopes of the Piesporter Goldtröpfchen and, for this magnificent wine, the Wintricher Ohligsberg vineyard. The winery is a proud member of the VDP (Verband Deutscher Prädikat- und Qualitätsweingüter), an elite association of Germany's finest producers. VDP membership is an assurance of the highest quality standards, including low yields, selective hand harvesting, and a commitment to expressing the unique terroir of their historic sites. The Vintage: 2009 The 2009 vintage in the Mosel is widely celebrated for producing wines of exceptional ripeness and balance. While the year was challenging for many producers, those who practiced meticulous vineyard management were rewarded with wines of remarkable intensity and freshness. The Auselse from this vintage is a testament to the dedication of the Haart family. It's a true high-wire act of winemaking, balancing intense, honeyed sweetness with the razor-sharp acidity that defines great Mosel Riesling. This 2009 Auslese is a masterpiece of the genre. Critics have praised its "phenomenally persistent" and "electric-shockingly bright" character, with notes of "prickly citrus rind," "yellow plum distillate," and "dark honey." It is a wine that is both a pure delight to drink now and has the structure to age for decades to come. Platinum Medal of a Prague Wine Trophy back in 2023 with 98 points.
