Tasting note
Greenish yellow hue and robust tears. First are aromas of dried peach slices and clove; with more air come nectarine and soft daisy scents. Wonderfully juicy palate with a sweet peach tone and a hint of lime syrup; delicate extract sweetness and a lively play between the sweetness and acidity interwoven with fine saltiness. Substantially smooth, creamy texture aided by the low alcohol. A Riesling that has punch, length and beautiful depth. (tasted by wine academic Johannes Fiala)

Food recommendation
