“Single variety Edelkastanien Met”
Chestnut honey is a rare specialty in Austria. The European sweet chestnut only grows in the warm climate of the hilly areas in the south of Austria. Two thousand years ago the Romans brought sweet chestnut trees to Norcium, the Latin name for this part of Austria at the time of the Roman Empire.
The wine is characterized by its clear, light, straw-yellow color. The bouquet combines the strong, spicy aromas of quinces and beeswax with a hint of pink grapefruit. The first sip conveys a subtle balance between liveliness, delicate dryness and full body. Spicy, fruity aromas accompany the wines satisfying sustained finish.
