  Made from one of Europe's oldest grape varieties, Germany's autochthonal Elbling, this refreshing white smells of tangerine, lemon, typical Mosel-herbs as well hints of marzipan. On the palate there is more tangerine, melon and orange zest while the wine finishes off perfectly with a nice medium-length finale of herbs and some slight mineralic touch. It is fresh, crispy and light with only 10,5% alcohol while remaining completely dry. This is the perfect summer wine that comes at an amazing QPR (4,50€ from the vineyard) especially for the great diversity it has to offer. Get ahold of this if you can, it will lighten up, your summer or bring some of it to you on the darker winter days...
