Tasting Notes
Vintage report
Germany´s largest wine growing area “Rheinhessen” has been affected for the second year with really warm weather. The vines sprouted a week earlier than normal, but the process slowed due to a cool May. June accelerated the growth again and the grapes have been affected by sunburn. The main harvest was finished within three weeks and lasted until the beginning of October. The late summer weather produced very healthy and ripe grapes.
Characteristics
Fresh flavors of green apple, peach and apricot. Elegant crisp wine, delicate fruitiness, harmoniously balanced with a refreshing acidity
Food Pairing – Seafood, shellfish, poultry, or pasta with cream sauce, Asian cuisine.
