The 2011 was an exceptional vintage. We were able to harvest all quality levels from Qualitätswein to Kabinett and all the way to Beerenauslese and Trockenbeerenauslese. The growing season was very long, with a cool spell in the summer but a very warm September and a magic, golden October. 2011 is a powerful, ripe and elegant vintage with a balanced and delicate acidity.
