White dry
A subtle and mineral "Riesling" wine from the prestigious Wachau region, Austria. "Federspiel" is a wine category that stands out for its gentler, fruitier, and refined taste.
The wine has aromas of lime, unripe apples, melon, carambola, and white cherries. Minerality and gentle acidity are also revealed. It is an excellent choice for wine lovers who appreciate freshness, fruitiness, and balanced acidity, as well as the classic "Riesling" style.
These wines are made from a blend of 5–40-year-old vines, planted in various plots closer to the river on alluvial soil and sand.
Natural fermentation takes place in older large-format barrels (500–5000 l) and stainless steel tanks, followed by aging on lees for about 3 months.
Serve at 8-10°C with seafood, baked trout with lemon and herbs, fish tartare with avocado and citrus, sushi, sashimi, and fatty soft cheeses.
What beautiful peachy aromas this elegant, medium-bodied dry Wachau riesling has. It also shows notes of flowers, berries and a hint of pink grapefruit. Long, zesty and stony finish that pulls you back for more. Drink or hold.
