Tasting Notes
Medium yellow-green colour. Initially restrained, fresh meadow herbs, dark minerality, delicate yellow fruit nuances, a hint of apricot, multi-faceted bouquet. Powerful, taut, shows a silky texture, fine yellow apple fruit, finesse-rich acidity, finely savoury finish, lingers for a very long time, a multi-layered Veltliner with enormous certain ageing potential.
