2020 Südtirol / Alto Adige DOC Sauvignon "Quintessenz", Alto Adige, Italy

Firm and relatively cool, somewhat asparagus-like bouquet with fine white and green fruity aromas, herbaceous and planty tones reminiscent of dill, a little currant leaves, tangerine peel and elderflower. Ripe, clear, fine-juicy, bright fruit, very fine acidity, herbal to planty aromas, a little sugar snap peas and asparagus, some sweet melting, very fine acidity, good persistence, partly dried herbs in the background, white pepper and salty minerality, hints of elderberry and blackcurrant, also redcurrant leaves and dill again, very good, juicy and herbal-spicy finish, again with some warmth, slight tannic bitterness and a little sweetness masking the contours.
