Tasting
Lovely powerful, rich 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 greengages – simply delicious in its complexity.
Noble sweetness combined with racy vibrant acidity, soft nectarine skin, fragrant fruit flesh, nuances of stone fruit flesh, downright vibrant sweetness-acidity cascade, throughout juicy. Like a noble piece of jewellery, delicately structured, 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!
Pairing
Pear strudel with Gorgonzola piccante, Churros dusted with peach powder, 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!
