Riesling Glimmerschiefer 2018

Wine information
This noble drop originates from orthogneiss and mica slate soils and delights with a spontaneous fermentation process.
Color
It presents itself in a bright, vibrancy lemon yellow with bright green reflections.
Bouquet
The fragrance of this wine welcomes us with a beach chair full of lively freshness - stimulating citrus nuances, lemon balm, refreshing green apple, pickled pear, gooseberry, plus a colourful bouquet of meadow flowers, a hint of hay and subtle hints of ginger and aniseed. A seductive hint of subtle sweetness points unmistakably and charmingly to the coming spring.
Taste
This vivacity continues down the palate as you taste the 2018 Glimmerschiefer from Martin Muthentaler. A delicate sweetness joins forces with dynamic acidity, abundant minerality and restrained alcohol content of 9.5 vol%. Such a pleasure is truly an invitation to extensive drinking!
Alternative food suggestions
Instead of prawns with miso cauliflower, you could serve fried scallops on a lentil curry, or instead of a cream of nettle soup with baked rice cakes, a cream of herb soup with two kinds of croutons. An elegant alternative to the pike-perch and lime tartare would be a salmon and avocado tartare with lemon and thyme cream.
