Product Notes

Elena Walch Riesling Vigna Castel Ringberg Alto Adige is an exquisite Italian wine with an appealingly invigorating nose. Fusing the typical tones of peach with nuances of citrus, this wine is a delightful surprise. Its palate boasts excellent fruit concentration, interlaced with ripe acidity, giving the wine a harmonious balance, persistence and depth. The sourness of lemon zest and the sweetness of apricot tantalise the taste buds. Its finish is long and elegant. The wine is a sterling example of Italian Riesling, bringing forth the varietal's impressive capacity for ageing along with its finely nuanced, refreshing complexities.

Tasting Notes

The Riesling Vigna “Castel Ringberg” presents a brilliant straw yellow colour alongside fruity aromas of peaches with subtle notes of white flowers, fresh spice with a hint of white pepper, and mineral typicity. On the palate unfolds a stimulating freshness and racy acidity combined with a mineral structure, filigree elegance and fresh finish.
