Pleasant herbal spiciness on the nose, with ripe stone fruit, some fresh green apples, a touch of grapefruit and lime comes through, some grape sugar, subtle notes of elderflower, black and red pepper, fine roasted aromas. The ripe fruit is wonderfully mouth-filling on the palate, underlaid by rich herbal aromas and delicate floral notes in the background, reminiscent of baked apples, nettles, great extract sweetness, fresh salty minerality, dense, creamy and very balanced, wonderfully integrated roasted aromas with a delightfully long-lasting finish.
Pleasure. For family Salzl that is a good glass of wine that reflects the warmth, the joie de vivre, the uniqueness of the Seewinkel Area. Illmitz is not only the home town of the Salzls, their vines also grow here in between the nationalpark Neusiedlersee-Seewinkel - a world heritage region. It is an obligation for Christoph Salzl, a mission and an honor at the same time, not only to live in this region, but to wholeheartedly appreciate and protect this privilege. Three generations of Salzls work with a lot of experience, heart and soul to vinificate great wines with passion.
The vineyard is brown earth soil consisting of sandy clay with a high amount of gravel. Alcoholic fermentation at 15 °C in small oak barrels, regular stirring of the lees.
Perfect with white meat and poultry (also dark meat for people with a histamine allergy), seafood (for example shellfish), offal (for example lungs and liver), Asian dishes.
