Tasting note
Golden hue with green reflections. Pronounced tears. Fine aromas of stone fruit and dried apple slices. Elegant extract sweetness and racy acidity. Very salty with enormous tension; a juicy, velvety – and vibrating – texture. Concentrated with light-footed alcohol and notes of fresh apricot, lemon, dried seaweed, green olive, and artichoke lending to a vegetal tone. A long sweet-tart finish.(tasted by wine academic Johannes Fiala)
