The experienced harvesting team meticulously selected only the cleanly dried, noble rot grapes, which were then gently pressed in a traditional basket press.  The resulting thick, viscous elixir is truly impressive!  The quality of the Beerenauslese (selected berries) – especially considering the moderately ripe 2022 vintage – is a true masterpiece, as high-quality sweet wines like Auslese, Beerenauslese, etc., were in short supply this year.  Egon Müller naturally also considered a TBA (Trockenbeerenauslese – selected dried berries), but the selected berries did not meet his highest standards, so the must was partly blended with the regular Auslese – an upgrade to our liking! The result of the maturation in the legendary Scharzhof cellar is an incredibly impressive Auslese with a wow factor:  Glory and splendor, all the trumpets are singing, powerful without end, yet fine and precise at the same time, initially dominated by mineral, smoky notes that give way to a potpourri of aromas of raisins, dried apricots, candied citrus fruits, quince, and exotic hints of ripe pineapple and passion fruit, with a minty-menthol top note.  On the palate, the paradox that only Egon Müller's Auslesen can achieve: on the one hand, almost overwhelming intensity and concentration with an oily texture and generous sweetness, and on the other hand, this piquant, penetrating acidity with distinctly salty slate minerality, which almost completely counteracts the enormously high Botrytis content.  A lingering finish with an impressive fireworks display of aromas.
