2004 Guntrum Dry Riesling

2004 Guntrum Dry Riesling

The latest addition to the portfolio of fine wines from Louis Guntrum initiated by Julius Barratt of Australian Wineries. 2004 Guntrum Dry Reisling is the counterpart to our world success Guntrum Riesling Royal Blue Bottle. The classic and elegant yet modern and easy understandable label and package is paired with a most appealing and delightful wine.

Typical characteristics of Riesling like green apple and pears, combined with a vivid yet harmonious acidity make this wines a perfect proposition as aperitif, lunch- and dinner-/evening wine. All sorts of seafood are a perfect match as well as meat with white sauces.

The grapes for 2004 Guntrum Dry Reisling were harvested at Spaetlese quality level to provide full-bodied and rich texture and harmonious acidity. The grapes originate from our Niersteiner Pettenthal vineyard. We recommend to serve this wines at a temperature of 8° to 10° Celsius.
