Brilliant, bright golden yellow, great traces of viscosity on the glass, intensive notes of stewed peaches, most delicate blossom honey, underpinned by a superb citrus note, accompanied by slight notes of passion fruit, yellow peaches and stewed apricots – simply delicious.
Noble sweetness combined with racy explosive acidity, soft peach skin, fragrant, irresistible fruit flesh, notes of stone fruit, throughout juicy. Like a noble piece of jewellery, densely structured, very elegant, vivacious yet serious. Rust minerality and the local touch of lemon adds to the aroma spectrum, ages perfectly but not necessarily . . . unparalleled price-performance ratio. World classy, sorry, no joke.
Pairing
Pairs even with eccentric 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 enjoy during sophisticated self-talks or to top an unforgettable “Dinner for two”. Ice-cold to tempered Stilton - without cucumber sandwich or to Jersey blue = the Swiss gorgonzola icon. Whistle down the wind!
Making
Harvested Mid of November 2020 manually into small boxes - deriving from the Ruster Satz vineyard, a very traditional sweet wine cru, planted on a Good Friday.
Crushing, 3 hours of maceration in the tank press, pressing, fermentation and maturation in stainless steal tanks.
