  Pale gold. Nose is apple (like fuji) and pear, touch of apricot and almond. Body is full and textured. Lots of honey with a long finish and a touch of acidity on the end.

  Slightly mineral and not too sweet. Citrus and vanilla. Not too complex

  Attractive dry Kerner wine – Kerner is a German crossbreed between Riesling and Vernatsch (Trollinger) – made by the Augustinian monks of the Neustift monastery (Brixen/South-Tyrol, founded in 1142). Bright straw yellow in color with golden reflections and a nice floral nose with fragrances of peach, mango, melon, elderberry and a hint of clove. The elegant, not too complex palate shows pure citrus and stone fruit, a smooth texture and a well-integrated acidity. A slight touch of sweetness in the aftertaste. Drink it now and over the next two years.
  
  Aantrekkelijke droge Kerner-wijn – Kerner is een Duitse kruising tussen Riesling en Vernatsch (Trollinger) –, gemaakt door de Augustijner monniken van het klooster Neustift (Brixen/Zuid-Tirol, opgericht in 1142). Helder strogeel van kleur met wat gouden reflecties en een mooie florale neus met aroma’s van perzik, mango, meloen, vlierbes en een vleugje kruidnagel. Een elegante, niet al te complexe wijn, gedomineerd door steenvruchten- en citrusfruit, zacht van textuur en met een fraai geïntegreerde aciditeit. Een zweem van restsuiker in de afdronk. Te drinken: nu en in de komende twee jaar.

  Light caramel, duchess pear, citrus aromas. Slightly sweetish, funny, lemonade-like, easy drinking. Moderate length.
