Carl Ehrhard and his wife Petra tend their vineyards, run a catering business and a vinotek in the Rhine town of Rüdesheim (home of the Medieval Torture Museum) and somehow find the time to not only make terrific wines, but enjoy all that they do. This two decade old Spatlese was culled from the hillside Berg Rottland vineyard and, like the Ehrhards, is a rare treat.
