NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
On the nose, this Riesling Auslese offers a delightful bouquet of ripe peaches, apricots, and honey.These aromas are complemented by subtle floral notes, adding a touch of elegance to the overall profile.
The palate is equally impressive, with a luscious and rich texture that coats the mouth. The sweetness of the wine is well-balanced by a vibrant acidity, creating a harmonious and refreshing experience. Flavors of tropical fruits, such as pineapple and mango, mingle with hints of citrus, providing a complex and layered taste.
