ST #52 Grauburgunder trocken - Weinhaus Steffen

The ST #52 Pinot Gris from Weinhaus Steffen of the Moselle offers a brilliant, copper-gold color in the wine glass. To the nose, this Weinhaus Steffen white wine presents all sorts of quince, morello cherry, apples, pears and plums. As if that wasn't already impressive, the stainless steel aging adds more flavors like whole nut chocolate, roasted almond and brittle.

This dry white wine from Weinhaus Steffen is for people who like it absolutely dry. The ST #52 Pinot Gris already comes very close to this, as it was pressed with just 7.1 grams of residual sugar. Light-footed and multi-layered, this light and silky white wine presents itself on the palate. Due to its present fruit acidity, the ST #52 Pinot Gris presents itself wonderfully fresh and lively on the palate. In the finish, this storable white wine from the wine-growing region of the Mosel finally inspires with good length. Once again, hints of pear and nashi pear show through.
