Auslese means selection. The wine makers are picking the bunches that will make the style of wine they want, these are some of the sweetest wines you find in Mosel. They can have no botrytis all the way up to full infection. Intense, dense and really need a good time to age. They can have nice mineral and savoury elements to balance the fruit and they should have sufficient acid to keep everything in check. They best can be endlessly layered, like wandering into a labyrinth the path will always be changing and evolving.
