Wine Description

It displays delicate golden colour. Nose is of medium intensity with notes of peaches, apricots, pineapple and lime, accompanied with hints of wet stones and flint. Very dry on the palate, medium bodied with rather moderate Riesling acidities. Vibrant, fresh, with very good intensity on the palate. Very young indeed, with long finish. A firm Riesling which will attract true Riesling fans.

Winery

WINEMAKING TRADITION SINCE 1139: At the Dveri-Pax winery in northeastern Slovenia, we are continuing the 800-year-old winemaking tradition of the Admont Benedictine monks - with great respect for nature and a keen sense for trends. Our vineyards cover 73 hectares, and the vintners work with a great respect for nature and tradition as well as a keen sense of trends.
