"Taktvolle Aromenfülle aus Minze, Sauerampfer, Pfirsich und Nektarine. Alles maßvoll und nicht zu laut - wohltemperiert. Am Gaumen dreht er dann mächtig mit Bässen und Höhen auf, zeigt sich in voller Akustik und bleibt wärmend zurück."

"Kühler sowie glockenklarer Duft mit floralen Anklängen. Weiße Johannisbeere, Bachminze, helle Blüten und Granny-Smith-Apfel. Von ebenso klarer wie feinsaftiger Gaumenstruktur. Wunderschön balancierte mineralische Ader mit anregender Herbe im Fruchtkern und schwungvollem Finale. Bereitet große Trinkfreude."

"Smoke and dried-herb notes lend an intensely savory tone to this dry Riesling from Franken. It's profoundly minerally on the palate, but brightened by crisp citrus acidity that lingers on the finish. A savory companion to hearty pork or chicken dishes."
