Bergwein Südsteiermark DAC 2020 Gebietswein

6,3 g/l acidity TA 3,4 g/l residual sugar Cork cap 0,75 l size 12,5 % ABV

Cool, juicy bouquet with aromas of kafirlimette, dried herbs and wet stone. With air also chalk dust, wild thyme and salt lemon.  On the palate salty and linear as well as surrounded by a yellow fruit melt and lots of extract. The animating aftertaste persists for a long time.  A reflection of Southern Styria! (Thomas Schabl, Weinakademiker)
