Trocken

[Bucko]

Trocken is German for "dry," and cannot contain more than 0.9% residual sugar. Halbtrocken means "half-dry."

That said, Trockenbeerenauslese is the sweetest and most expensive of German wines. It does not make sense until you break the word down into parts:

Trocken - The grapes are so shriveled that they are almost "dried up."

Beeren - Individual grapes.

Auslese - Special Selection.
