RUSTER AUSBRUCH ESSENZ (PETER SCHANDL WINERY)

Tasting: a successful interplay of the blended grape varieties, the finesse of each particular cultivar evolves into a rare joint harmony; amber; thick honey nose; savoury Muskateller aromas coating and refreshing the palate, pronounced acidity structure which emphasizes the other components and assures practically an endless longevity; a noble wine which is very rarely successfully made
