This testament to refined winemaking generates an unforgettably captivating experience.

Tasting Notes

A deep and complex Spatlese with a ton of blossom aromas, but also great white fruit and a touch of yellow peach and fresh pineapple. Very long, bright and delicate on the medium-bodied palate. Drink or hold
