Producer Information

Weingut Egon Mller is a renowned wine estate based just outside the village of Wiltingen in the Saar valley sub-region of the Mosel in Germany. It exclusively works with the Riesling grape, and is particularly known for its wines made from the exceptional Scharzhofberg vineyard southeast of Wiltingen. The current manager is Egon Mller IV, who studied his craft at the leading winemaking university at Geisenheim. The Egon Mller wines are produced at a range of ripeness levels, including Kabinett, Sptlese and Auslese, with Auslese Goldkapsel (literally “gold capsule”) made in the best years. If conditions allow, sweet Beerenauslese, Trockenbeerenauslese and Eiswein are also produced. The estate in its present form dates back to 1797, when Jean-Jacques Koch acquired the Scharzhof farm from the French republic. His daughter married Felix Mller, and the estate has remained in the same family ownership ever since. Egon Mller also produces top-class Riesling with Miroslav Petrech in Slovakia under the Chteau Bel label. In the Adelaide Hills region of Australia he collaborates with Michael Andrewarta of East End Cellars to make the dry Kanta Riesling from a vineyard owned by Shaw + Smith.
