Auslese

Auslese is a German wine classification that indicates a high-quality, highly concentrated wine made from carefully selected, ripe or overripe grapes. The grapes are individually chosen, often affected by noble rot (a beneficial mold that concentrates sugars and flavors), resulting in a rich, sweet wine with complex flavors. It is typically produced in small quantities and represents a careful harvest of the best grapes. Auslese wines are known for their balance of sweetness, acidity, and depth, making them suitable for pairing with desserts or enjoying on their own.
