Tasting Notes
Fragrant, fresh, and vivid with aromas of ripe pear, peach and a hint of green apple. Light-bodied crisp and refreshing, reminiscent of fresh green apples. Slightly off-dry with a well balanced mouthwatering acidity. Alcohol 12%
Method
This is a QbA- Qualitatswein wine from the Rheinhessen region. The Rheinhessen is protected from cold winds and strong rainfall by surrounding hills, making the area good for grape growing. Production in stainless steel with limited exposure to oxygen, accentuates the aromatic characteristics of the riesling grape.  This wine is light bodied and off dry with 10.5 g RS. Â
