Pannonhalmi Apatsagi

2007 Tramini

Hungary, Pannonhalma

 

Spring might not be here yet, but this wine will certainly make you feel like it is. This 2007 Gewurztraminer from Hungary, yes from Hungary, it is aromatic but yet dry on the palate.

Aromas of white peaches, jasmine, ginger and roses, with dry elegance on the palate can be enjoyed on its own or with a light meal.
