Vintage 2016

The 2016 wine-growing year was a challenging one.

On some of the sites, the vegetation period began very early, between the end of March and the beginning of April.

Fortunately the frost in the night of April 27 did not do any real damage to the vines. At the end of April and in May, the temperatures remained cool until the vines were already flowering.

On the early-flowering sites, the vines started flowering on May 25. From May to August, precipitation was at above-average levels.

A change in the weather in the middle of August was a great relief to the vintners.

On September 6, we were able to begin the harvest, which was accompanied by perfect autumn weather and warm and dry days.

Tasting notes:

Color:

intensive light-golden yellow

Perfume:

this Gewürztraminer selection is characterized by a dense, finely knit nose revealing exotic tropical aromas of grapefruit, lime, lychee and orange underpinned with rose leaf and ginger notes.

Taste:

the fruity aromatic character of the wine continues on the palate, which makes it highly quaffable. With its classic dry finish, the wine is complex but at the same time very salty and smooth.

Pairings:

An attractive combination with the sweet and sour dishes typical of Asian cuisine, grilled scorpion fish or swordfish, and pink-roasted pigeon breast as well as squash gnocchi with walnuts and Alba truffles with a Balsamico dressing; also ideal with rice pudding with cinnamon

and with mild blue cheese, like a mild gorgonzola.
