Tasting notes

Deep straw colour. The nose shows white pepper, apricot, roses. Fine mineralic depth. Powerful with in the mouth. Structured and well balanced version of grüner veltliner smaragd. Mineral, peppery fruit. Quite elegant and not as top heavy as smaragd can be. Fine acids good length. Great wine.

Straw colour. Fine nose with hintas of white fruits, dried roses, minerals and a layer of spices. Fullbodied wine in the mouth with some fatness. Fine concentration. Fine fruit. Hints of white peach, apricot, spices. Minerality. Young wine with fine acidity and quite a lot of alcohol on the finish. Good length. Great wine that needs some time. Will last a long time.
