Wine Description

Ein eleganter, saftiger Weißburgunder mit Aromen von reifen Steinobst, Birne und nussiger Würze. Harmonisch und elegant am Gaumen, ist er ein idealer Speisenbegleiter, besonders zu Fisch und Geflügel.

Tasting Notes

Helles Strohgelb, silberfarbene Reflexe. Zarte frische Birnenfrucht, etwas Mango, Orangenzesten, zart nach Kumquats und Limetten. Mittlere Komplexität, weißer Pfirsich, finessenreich strukturiert, frisch und mineralisch, bleibt haften, ein harmonischer Speisenbegleiter mit Potenzial. (verkostet von Peter Moser, Falstaff)

Food Pairing

Passt hervorragend zu Fisch, Krustentiere und zu hellem Fleisch. Wir empfehlen ein großes Weißweinglas (Burgunder-Glas).

Harvest and Maturing

After the selective hand-picking, the grapes are destemmed and lightly crushed. A short maceration period of a few hours is followed by slow and gentle pressing. The resulting fresh must is naturally clarified by settling (sedimentation). Fermentation takes place with natural yeasts mostly in stainless steel tanks and smaller parts in wooden barrels. Following alcoholic fermentation, biological malolactic fermentation and maturation on the full yeast until the end of winter (February) take place. The young wine is clarified/filtered in spring and prepared for bottling.
