Germany, Kaiserstuhl
Grauer Burgunder
Description
Weingut Karl H. Johner - Fine flavours of pears and ripe apples with underlying spicy aromas partly through the influence of 10% used oak barrels. On the palate extremely elegant, good drinkability, powerful and without the typical Pinot Gris bitterness.
