Tasting note
Bright greenish yellow hue with strong tears. On the nose are aromas of fruit zest,  dried pineapple, a pinch of white pepper and chamomile tea. The palate delivers notes of fresh pineapple, grapefruit, hints of spice (including cardamom), gingerbread and lemon jam. Plenty of varietal typicity. A full-bodied and grip-ping wine with powerful extract sweetness and vibrant acidity. A delicate blend of sweet-sour-salty-bitter on the finish. (tasted by wine academic Johannes Fiala)

Food recommendation
universal food companion, perfect with Wiener schnitzel
