Brilliant green-tainted yellow, with the aromas of apricots and peaches dominating. An elegant and powerful character, some indication of exotic fruits and a bit of sweetness are well balanced with the pleasant acidity. Long finish.

fits well with fried or grilled fish or a fish-risotto; also fish-based starters, smoked salmon but also many vegetables are a good choice with this Riesling
