Saar Auction Wines – The best Saar Rieslings at the legendary Trier Prädikat Wine Auction!
For over 100 years, the best Rieslings from the Saar region have been auctioned at the traditional Trier Prädikat wine auction, which always takes place in mid-September. The organizer is the "Grosse Ring," an association of top winemakers founded in 1908, from which the later VDP.Mosel-Saar-Ruwer emerged. Traditionally, only noble sweet Prädikat wines were auctioned, but since the 132nd Prädikat wine auction in 2019, dry VDP.GROSSE GEWÄCHSE have also been auctioned. New world records are regularly set at the auction. For example, the bottles of Egon Müller Scharzhofberger Riesling Trockenbeerenauslese 2003 auctioned in 2015, with a net value of €12,000 per 0.75l bottle, still hold the record for the most expensive newly released wine in the world!
Basically, the treasures offered there are the best barrels of a vintage, meaning wines that stand out significantly from the other wines in the range due to their special aromas and extraordinary aging potential. The auction is open to everyone, and all auction wines can be tasted on the morning before the auction, as well as at the so-called "wet auction" at midday. Attendees do not bid themselves, but commission one of the agents who bids on the desired wines on their behalf.
