Description

Description

The crop of the two vineyards Széldomb and Tavaszó that bear diverse soil and microclimatic characteristic was harvested in different phase of biological ripeness. Due to the timely and carefully applied technology in the winery, a tasty and crispy white wine with the typical notes of the grape variety was produced that, at the same time, authentically represents the natural conditions of Pannonhalma. The aromatics of the wine are dominated by hay, gooseberry and green apple, enriched by a sweet tinge of elderflower on the finish.
