It offers a gorgeous nose of white peach, fine herbs, floral elements and smoke. The wine develops the gorgeous juiciness of an old-style “drinking Auslese” with orchard fruits, whipped sour cream and a nice kick of zest on the palate and leaves one with plenty of mouthwatering fruits in the long and playful finish.
