Víno Mikulov Sommelier Club Ryzlink Rýnský 2008 pozdní sběr

Variety: Rhine Riesling
Country of origin: Czech Republic
Wine appellation: Moravia, Velké Pavlovice sub appellation, Hustopeče village, Na výsluní Vineyard
Vintage: 200á
Alcohol content: 12.5%
Color: straw yellow
Bouquet: honey, herbs, dry orange peel, quite expressive
Taste: medium body, good structure in the mouth with excellent balance between acidity, minerality and bottle age, similar to taste dominant is canned citrus peel with honey, touch of spices in the mid palate with persistent lime and citrus finish, which is slightly longer
Recommended food pairing: pork schnitzel
Overall score: 86
Price: CZK 180

Very good properly aged Riesling, although classified as dry I would assume that this is due to high acidity as it seems to me slight residual sugar around 7g is there, which makes it perfect and helped together with the acidity the aging process.
