This wine is open and playful on the nose, delicate aromas of currants, strawberries, hints of cloves and delicate citrus; medium-bodied, the palate is fruity yet balanced with a refreshing acidity․ 

The wine goes well with light or spicy Mediterranean dishes such as a Sahkshuka, a Greek salad with sheep's cheese or a fish platter. It also ideally accompanies Austrian cuisine such as Roast chicken with french fries, sauteed porcini or a fried trout with vegetables

Work in the vineyard takes place based on sustainable and, increasingly, organic principles, without the use of insecticides or herbicides, and grapes are hand-picked. Fermented in stainless steel tanks.
