Ried Heiligenstein

Kamptal DAC

Golden yellow with immense tears. Fine scents of apricot compote and vanilla pudding with hints of herbs de Provence, lemon verbena and - with more air -
hot stones and a handful of earth that holds them all together. Very dense with powerful minerality; a creamy mouthful delivering tones of candied fruit,
apple and zest; lovely extract sweetness with balanced acidity; also a fine saltiness. A calm yet demanding wine that thrills with its enormous minerality,
thanks to the lower alcohol level. (tasted by wine academic Johannes Fiala)

spicy fish dishes - even garlic-infused; an ideal match with Serbian carp

Rich golden yellow hue and massive tears. Aromas of candied fruits, dried apricot, nectarine and a hint of dill. Mouth-fillingly creamy with discreet yellow fruit flavours; also an apple jelly note. Clear as a bell, rich and fullbodied with an excellent structure. Very firm with balanced acidity. Shows noble restraint - and such promising potential. (tasted by wine academic Johannes Fiala)

curry dishes

olden yellow with a tinge of green. Pronounced tears. Initially restrained aroma, but opens with notes of grapefruit and herbal tea. Dense with a creamy mouthfeel and notes of quince jelly and lemon zest. The yarrow tone is underscored more by the minerality than the fruit. Extract sweetness with balanced acidity, a creamy
texture and a fine mineral bitterness on the finish. Calm yet demanding. Best in a large glass to express the fundamental minerality. (tasted by wine academic Johannes Fiala)
