Tasting from 09.07.2019: Ulrich Sautter
On the nose some blossom honey, with lemon blossom, and candied orange peel. An immediate flavour of yellow fruit on the palate, apricot, a noticeable Viognier effect, a full body, with ripe acidity, and a chalky minerality underneath. It is a wine with substance and drive, but without excess of force and volume, and it is also a nice food wine.
