Every wine on this list comes from Burgundy. The lone outlier is Egon Müller Scharzhofberger Riesling Trockenbeerenauslese, and with good reason. This Riesling has long served as Mosel’s gold standard for great wine. As wine critic Stephan Reinhardt wrote, “Wines of Egon Müller are rare and terribly expensive, but worth almost every sin.”
This white wine ranks as the top-scoring German wine among critics, with the last two vintages earning perfect scores from Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate. That’s not all. Its best vintages have lifespans of more than 70 years, making this Riesling borderline eternal.
