The aromas of roses & Turkish delight are Gewurz-like in intensity but there is the added minerality from the Riesling & some pear apparent too. The acid shows the fineness of the Riesling & keeps the blend fresh and in line along the long length. Being slightly off dry adds to [...]

Dry, sweetly perfumed with spicy rose & tropical lychee that are typical for wines made from this big-hearted grape.
