Lerchenspiel Rieslaner Auslese 2017 (Half)
Prädikatswein, Pfalz, Germany
Rieslaner | 8.0% ABV
Discover this German sweet wine made from 100% Rieslaner grapes which is a grape variety that is not easily found. It is a cross between Riesling and Sylvaner grapes which has given their attributes to this delicious, and straightforward wine. This wine is fresh and succulent without being too sweet or heavy.
Though somewhat discreet on the nose, its palate comes to life with expressive notes of succulent muscat grapes, white pineapple and lime zest. A lovely saltiness on the finish adds dimension and lift.
Good with blue or hard cheese, fresh or semi-soft cheese, fruit-based dessert, and spicy and vegetarian dishes.
Best served at 10 - 13°C.
