SENSORIC
In the nose clear impressions of gooseberry and black currant. On the palate, the Scheurebe shows its exotic and spicy side. The invigorating acidity gives support and provides drinking flow.
Scheurebe (or "Sämling 88") is a white wine grape variety invented by Dr. Scheu about 100 years ago, by crossing Riesling with an ancient grape varietal (likely Bukettrebe). It is primarily grown in Germany and Austria, and some parts of the New World. Scheurebe wines are highly aromatic, and the variety is often used for sweet wines. Dry Scheurebe wines have become more popular in Germany.
