Tasting
Looking for other vintages? Go to the main page Ruster AusbruchWonderfully brilliant golden yellow, rich traces of viscosity on the glass, intensive notes of stewed peaches, most delicate blossom honey, underpinned by slight notes of passion fruit, yellow peaches and stewed apricots – simply delicious.
Noble sweetness combined with racy explosive acidity, soft peach skin, fragrant fruit flesh, nuances of stone fruit flesh, throughout juicy. Like a noble piece of jewellery, densely structured, rich, vivacious yet serious. Rust minerality and the local touch of lemon adds to the aroma spectrum, ages perfectly but not necessarily…. Hardly beatable price-performance-ratio. Heart blood may also take on a golden-transparent colour!
A champion under the champions of the last three decades!
Pairing
Pairs even with honey-soaked desserts, pancakes with stewed apricots and vanilla ice cream, juicy cake with Danube walnut brittle, poppy ravioli with stewed quince, pralines of goose-liver, Dolcelatte with bread from dried pears, pear tart, honey sorbet with sugar melon flambé, sweet pasta with stewed strawberries & caramel-almonds, delicious fruit pralines. To accompany day dreams or to crest an unforgettable “Dinner for two”. Ice-cold to tempered Stilton - without cucumber sandwich or to Jersey blue – the Swiss gorgonzola icon. To find out where the wind blows!
