Expect a pure and fascinating mix of melting or crushed slate and ripe, concentrated white fruits. On the palate, it is vital, fresh, racy, piquant, and tensioned, displaying a crystalline, very pure, and challenging structure with stimulating salinity. Further notes include ripe citrus aromas, candied orange peel, kumquat, and distinct slate notes, leading to a palate with classy astringency, crunchy acidity, and deep minerality. 🍴 This exquisite Riesling is a superb match for delicate shellfish, crab, and lobster. It also pairs wonderfully with turkey or spicy dishes, offering versatility for various culinary experiences. 🥂 Ideal for special celebrations, sophisticated dinner parties, or a serious wine tasting session, this wine can be enjoyed now for its vibrant youth or cellared for 3-5 more years to allow for further development and complexity.
