Wine description

Ripe apple and pear aromas dominate the nose, underpinned by a hint of nut; still youthful; the lively acidity is a refreshing partner to the full body, giving the wine a charming structure; noticeable ripe pear notes continue, this time underpinned by complex and restrained floral elements, long-lasting finish.

Wine description

Full yellow. The nose shows soft shades of ripe fruit, pastel-colored aromas of camomille, vanilla and smoke. The palate is tremendously
intense and spicy of herbs, indeed very rich and long. The full body is sufficiently countered by a vivaceous acidity and gives the wine a lot of
length. In the aftertaste slightly salty. There is still a lot to come!

Wine description

Brilliant shiny yellow hue. The nose is somewhat reserved with soft yellow fruit notes. Cool elegance on the palate with clear, straight apple tones. A
noble texture, beautifully mineral and structured; bone dry with fine acidity and continuously juicy. Wonderfully harmonious, promising much potential.

Wine description

Pronounced straw yellow hue. Oily tears. Noble scents of hazelnut cookies and dried fruits with a hint of white chocolate. Discreet flavours of yellow
apple, lemon zest and dates. Needs air or at least some time to develop. Bone dry and racy; full-bodied with lots of saltiness. The wood here is
completely undetectible. The smooth texture continues from beginning to the long citrus finale - which yields an expression of pomelo. Guaranteed to have
a long life.

Wine description

Golden yellow with oily tears. The aroma is complex with scents of dried fruits, pear, hops, yarrow, a touch of beeswax and some wet stone. On the
palate are tones of firm yellow fruit, apple sauce and dates. Full-bodied with significant extract and balanced acidity. A tightly woven wine with a chalky
texture, enormous grip and a fine, tart finish (think pomegranate seeds). A guaranteed long life. (tasted by wine academic Johannes Fiala)

Wine description

Yellow hue with green reflections. The nose exudes charming fruity scents of nectarine, greengage and dried pear plus accents of chestnut and cardamom. With a gentle mouthfeel and smooth texture, this pleasantly dry wine yields crisp acidity and fine minerality. It dances on the palate, but accelerates on the finish – a fruit basket of pear, powerful citrus notes, salted orange slices and a lengthy lemon juice expression. (tasted by wine academic
Johannes Fiala)

Food pairing
