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)
grape variety
Sauvignon Blanc: This variety has small leaves and dense foliage, the grapes are small, compact and cylindrical, the berries have a spicy, intense flavour.
Welschriesling: The variety ripens very late and therefore needs warm, well-ventilated sites. The grapes are medium sized, cylindrical and have a small grape cluster.
