Tasting

Light straw yellow, complex fragrance of sun-ripened yellow fruits, English tea-roses, a whole bunch of spices, clear and animating. Freshly picked flowers, greengage. young and full of aromas. Pleasant fruit-driven sweetness in the upper Spätlese-range. Good Traminer spiciness. Aroma concentration on the palate. Nectarines, fresh kiwis. Finely chiselled. Makes much fun.

Pairing

Ginger soup, cocoa-caramel tart, sorbets with fruit-spice-combinations as for example greengage with cloves, delicate red mould cheese paired with chutneys, small goose liver balls and stewed apples, goat cheese affinated almost to an “illegal” extent, as refreshment at a “ladies’ meeting”.

Making

Hand-picked Mid-September 2007.Hand-picked into small boxes, de-stemming, 6 hours of maceration, gentle pressing followed by temperature-controlled fermentation in stainless steel tanks, interruption of fermentation by chilling and filtration, exclusively steel-tank contact.
