Tasting Note
Golden-hued, aromatic Auslese with ripe peach, pineapple, candied citrus, orange blossom and honey. Vibrant, laser-like acidity balances luscious sweetness, finishing long with saline minerality and a touch of spice.

Food Pairing
Western: blue and washed‑rind cheeses, foie gras, fruit tarts, crème brûlée. Asian: mango sticky rice, Chinese dim-sum with sweet‑soy, mildly spicy Thai curries, Korean pajeon.

Production Method
Hand-harvested late-harvest grapes (sometimes botrytized), pressed gently. Fermented and matured in temperature-controlled stainless steel; bottled often in 375ml demi bottles.
