Winemaker Notes
A tangy tropical Scheu, none too sweet and with a good acid tooth; spearmint and ginger and lemon zest; a zingy exotic wine with a surprising amount of tension.
Like its parent Riesling, Scheurebe is an aromatic variety made in a range of styles from bone-dry to lusciously sweet. Either style will show high acidity, but not quite as high as Riesling. Crisp and pleasant, it features citrus fruit from lime to grapefruit, as well as pear, blackcurrant, herbs and honeysuckle. It thrives in cool climates, and is most popular in Rheinhessen, Pfalz, Franken and Nahe regions of Germany, as well as Austria, Slovenia and Switzerland
