Tasting Notes

Tasting from 14.11.2021: Ulrich Sautter

Orange wine from the young winemaker Dominik Münzenberger. Strong lemon yellow colour. Notes of candied orange peel, dried apricot and wormwood. Slender on the palate with a creamy texture, lemon juice and pronounced phenolics that lend a distinctive tartness.
