2015 | Philip Kuhn | Kirschgarten Riesling Beerenauslese

Noble sweet Riesling. Dried, perfect raisins result in this liqueur-like specialty. White wine with a strong sweetness, but very lively with animating acidity and low alcohol content. Honey scent with smoky notes. Elegant aromas of overripe yellow fruits, especially extreme exotic notes enchant the palate.
