Somm Note
Winemaker Notes
Medium green yellow; pure pepper on the nose; hinting at typical Grüner spiciness; aromatic herbs and yellow fruit; dense and complex on the palate; great promise for the future.
Goes very well with any kind of seafood; as well with chicken and turkey.

Wine Enthusiast
Moss, lemon, yeast and boxwood are all evoked subtly on the nose but promise liveliness nonetheless. The palate is edged with zesty citrus that underlines a concentrated, yeasy core of intense saltiness that makes this simply irresistible. Hints of white pepper shimmer in the background while lemon keeps everything bright.

Dried-lemon, steel and lime aromas with some dried papaya. Medium-to full-bodied with creamy texture and fresh acidity. Nice bitter lemon at the end. Even oyster shells. Drink now.

Absolute focus on the strengths of the region and the unique soil types that are found there ensure that year to year the wines display unmistakable clarity of fruit. "Sustainable development, carefully controlling the harvest and meticulous pruning are the most natural and important prerequisites for successful winemaking", says Markus. "Only that way can there be a harmonious merging of traditional and modern methods that create pure wines of unique provenance and character."
