Late_harvest_wine
Late harvest is a term applied to wines made from grapes left on the vine longer than usual. ''Late harvest'' is usually an indication of a sweet dessert wine such as late harvest riesling. Late harvest grapes are often more similar to raisins, but have been naturally dehydrated while on the vine. Botrytis_cinerea|Botrytis, ''noble rot'', is a mold that causes grapes to lose nearly all of their water content. Wines made from botrytis-affected grapes are generally extremely sweet. Sauternes, such as Ch?teau d'Yquem, and many Tokaji wines are made from botrytis-affected grapes. Late harvest wines are made from grapes that have not necessarily been affected by botrytis, although the end result is often similar.For German wine|German late harvest wines see spätlese, auslese, beerenauslese and trockenbeerenauslese, and for wines frozen on the vine see icewine.
