The 2024 Egon Müller Wiltinger Braune Kupp Riesling Auslese is a beautifully refined sweet Riesling from the historic Braune Kupp vineyard in Germany’s Saar region. Produced by the renowned Egon Müller estate, this wine showcases the purity, balance and precision that have made the producer one of the most respected names in Riesling. The Braune Kupp site consistently delivers wines with generous fruit expression supported by vibrant acidity and distinctive slate-driven minerality.
The nose is intensely aromatic, revealing notes of ripe peach, apricot and mandarin alongside hints of orange blossom, honey and wet slate. On the palate, it is concentrated yet remarkably elegant, with layers of stone fruit and citrus balanced by bright acidity and exceptional freshness. The texture is silky and seamless, while the finish is long, focused and mineral-driven, leaving a lasting impression of purity and finesse.
Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is an outstanding Riesling for collectors and lovers of Germany’s great sweet wines. Its combination of richness, freshness and precision makes it highly versatile with food. Pair with blue cheese, foie gras, fruit-based desserts or lightly spiced Asian cuisine. Enjoy now for its vibrant fruit and energy, or cellar confidently for 20–30 years as it develops additional complexity and depth.
