Kerner (German crossing) in aromatic muscat-scented white (citrus, peach, flowers). Also precise Chardonnay, supple Zweigelt.
The word of the wine: Flavours
There are generally four so-called fundamental flavours: acidity, bitterness, sweetness and saltiness. The first three are considered to be the building blocks of the structure of wines. They are perceived by the taste buds that cover the surface of the tongue.
