The recent thread on Alzinger prompted me to break out a bottle of one of my favorite non-Wachau producers.
Color is a light yellow in the glass, with an entrancing nose of petrol-laced fruit cocktail & slate - to be honest, after a nose with this amount of complexity, the palate is guaranteed to disappoint.
Sweet & sour pineapple, bracing acidity and a perky finish - very nice all in, but clearly a second-class citizen to that wonderful nose. I’ve been drinking through a case of this over the past few years, and this may be the best showing yet. 13.5% alcohol per the label.
