First release: Germany 2025

Egon describes the Kabinett as juicy, precise, flinty, lime-driven wine. From the famed vineyard site, this is an ageworthy riesling from a stunning vintage. The 2025s show great energy, fruit and razor-sharp acidity. Drink 2027-2050. 8% [4 - Medium Dry].

For me the 2025s are extremely exciting and have great fruitiness, charm and plenty of zesty acidity. It was a vintage that didn't have the extreme high temperatures, rain was plentiful throughout the growing season and maybe a bit too much during harvest led to rigorous selection and slightly lower yields than predicted. Scharzhofberger is one of the most famed vineyard sites in Germany and Egon's winery and home looks right onto this amazing, steeped vineyard. The wines from Egon Müller are highly sought after and they are so hard to get hold of, but they are some of the best Germany rieslings you are likely to try and they have the capacity to age for decades. Egon believes that the fruit is expressive in youth, but if you age the wines, then the saltiness of the vineyard comes through. Drink from 2030 to 2050. 8.5% [6 - Sweet]

Egon describes the Auslese wines in 2025 as being highly expressive, showing great clarity and precision. 2025 is a vintage that didn't have extreme high temperatures and there was plenty of rain during the season, maybe a little too much during the late summer and harvest time, that led to rigorous selection and slightly lower yields than predicted. This has produced wines with great energy and racy acidities as well as fruity and expressive. The wines from Egon Müller are highly sought after, made in small quantities from some of the Saar's most prestigious sites. Although the Scharzhofberger is Egon's most famous vineyard, very close by is the the Braune Kupp in the village of Wiltingen that is a steep, south facing slope overlooking the Saar river. With its iron-rich soils, it produces a concentrated style of riesling. Drink from 2030 to 2050. 8.5% [6 - Sweet]

Egon Müller describes the spätlese as having a classic profile with stone fruit and being playful in character. My experience of the spätlese is that they deserve to be aged a little to really express their terroir. Egon also believes that the saltiness of the Scharzhofberger comes through with time in bottle. The 2025 is energetic, fruity and with great concentration. Drink 2029-2050. 7.5% [4 - Medium Dry].
