Hans Tschida Sauvignon Blanc Beerenauslese

點擊次數(shù)：2199

A first at this estate, the Angerhof 2005 Sauvignon Blanc Beerenauslese is loaded with luscious melon mingled with honey and candied lemon and tangerine zest. This invigoratingly pungent and bright, yet texturally soft and subtly creamy elixir is rather Muscat-like; displays the vivacity, freshness, and lift that are common denominators at this address; and should make for a decade’s interest. Hans Tschida – who has been working in wine since his childhood – has not worried about living almost literally in the shadow of Alois Kracher (with whom he says he shared many early discussions). Tschida’s sweet elixirs have their own elegant style and class, and he can also lay claim to some of best Eiswein and “Strohwein” (from fruit dried on mats) made anywhere in the world. In recent years, Tschida has begun shipping to the United States, which served to remind me it was high time that I brought his wines to the attention of my readers. Just as chez Kracher, there are two stylistic lines for nobly sweet wines: those that Tschida ferments in stainless steel tanks, he prefers to leave in tank; other wines are fermented and retained in barrique.Importers: Stacole Fine Wines, Boca Raton, FL; tel.
