Schloss Gobelsburg Gaisberg Riesling

Aging: 6 to 12 months in 25hl Austrian oak casks on fine lees.
Colour: Greenish-yellow.
Aroma: A complex and exciting bouquet, with notes of apricot and elderflower, slate spices and citrus hints of mandarin and lemon.
Flavour: Electric, opening up to ripe, concentrated fruit. Dense and tense, with exquisite acidity that sustains a spectacularly long, mouth-watering, salty and mineral finish.
Serve: 10 to 12⁰
Consumption: Immediate or storage.
Harmonisation: Ideal with fish, white meat, cheese, scallops and lobster.
