This is the easiest way to get to know the estate we call the undisputed king of German Riesling, and you don't have to step up to the single-vineyard bottles to do it. Scharzhof is the estate's own-name Riesling. It's labelled simply as QbA (Qualitätswein) instead of under one of the Prädikat levels like Kabinett or Spätlese, so it's built for drinking rather than collecting. The estate sits in the Saar Valley, the Mosel's tributary. It's as good on a Tuesday night as it is with a spicy takeout order. If you've only ever read about Müller, start with this one.

More about Egon Muller

Egon Müller is the benchmark for German Riesling, and the Scharzhof estate in the Saar Valley produces whites that fetch some of the highest auction prices of any white wine in the world. The family has run the estate since the early 19th century, and today Egon Müller IV carries forward a legacy of meticulous viticulture and uncompromising quality on the steep slate slopes of the Scharzhofberg. From Kabinett to Trockenbeerenauslese, these are wines of breathtaking precision.

Tasting Notes & Food Pairings

Perfect Pairings

Thai larb or green papaya salad; Sichuan dan dan noodles; pork belly bao with pickled cucumber; smoked trout on rye with horseradish cream; tarte flambée with bacon and onion.

Tasting Profile

Expect the classic Saar Riesling profile: green apple, white peach and citrus, with a slatey, stony edge. Typically light-bodied and low in alcohol, it balances a touch of sweetness against the Saar's racy, mouthwatering acidity, so it tastes fresh rather than sugary, finishing long, clean and lightly honeyed.

WINE GUIDES

German Wines

Is there a better grape than Riesling? Is there a better value? Its fruit purity, its perfume, and its mineral nuance are all unparalleled. And for centuries, the top German Rieslings were priced accordingly: at least as expensive as the top red wines of Bordeaux and Burgundy. But nowadays you could spend a lifetime exploring Germany’s great Riesling-producing regions while staying well within your budget. You might take an occasional break to try Germany’s other white grapes or perhaps a glass of Spätburgunder (the local name for Pinot Noir). It’s time to get started!
