Tasting notes

Straw colour. Quite sweet and aromatic nose of honey, flowers, petrol, herbs and light mineral. Fullbodied and not as dry as the other Nikolaihof-wines. Quite round and with this very slight touch of rs. Less mineral wine, but with very nice and complex fruit, floral, honey, a slight touch of botrytis. Good acids and length with some anise in the finish. Perhaps lacking a bit in the mineral intencity of other Nikolaihod-wines, but the fruit is so nice and irresistable.
