Tasting note
Bright golden yellow, delicate aromas of ripe apples. Lively and at the same time mature acidity, almost sparkling spiciness on the palate combined with the incomparable charm, as only the Veltliner from the Spiegel has. The typical flavors of this Cru are often present in this vintage again, but combined with the freshness of the vintage, which gives this full wine more structure and backbone.

Food recommendation
roast pork, braised meat
