Made from grapes grown on the legendary, precipitously steep, Würzgarten (Spice Garden) vineyard in the village of Ürzig where almost all the work must be done by hand. A light-bodied, but very concentrated wine that’s brilliantly fruity with a spicy, mineral character. A great wine with Asian cuisine. In the press: "With very sharp acidity and a peppery, faintly honeyed nose, the wine is a brilliantly refreshing mix of lime and green apple enlivened with a hint of sweet spice. At 7.5 per cent, it'll leave you with your wits largely intact, but has a sharp aromatic elegance to it that can make heftier vintages seem just a little crass."
