NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER

The Hexamer Riesling Porphyr is an exceptional wine that showcases the best qualities of the Riesling grape variety.On the nose, it offers a vibrant bouquet of citrus fruits such as lemon and lime, accompanied by floral notes of white flowers and a touch of minerality. The citrus flavors continue to shine, with zesty lemon and tangy grapefruit taking the lead. There is also a subtle hint of stone fruit, such as peach or apricot, adding complexity to the wine.
