Kuen Hof Peter Pliger Eisacktaler Veltliner Doc

"The flavours are exotic fruits, white pepper and smoked. In the mouth the wine is fruity-agile, delicate-soft but dynamic.

The Pliger’s Riesling vines were brought in from France, Germany and other producers in the Alto Adige. Riesling is now making a name for itself in Italy, and Pliger's 'Kaiton' bottling is one of the best. Lime-peel, flowers, petrol and an almost electric mineral character make this wine very exciting to drink; I am reminded of licking a nine-volt battery as a dare when I was younger. Bright balance of acidity and fruit. The name Kaiton is of Celtic origin, and was the name for the area around the estate."
